Cris “Cyborg” Justino has declared to not only stop Ronda Rousey’s undefeated streak but also to end her career.

Justino and Rousey meeting in the Octagon is expected to be one of the biggest fights in UFC history. But for now, MMA fans will have to be contented with the two taking jabs at each other on social media and interviews.

In a tweet, Justino challenged Rousey to make a fight happen “for the fans” not later than December 12.

“Stop being a do nothing bitch! Let’s do this for the FANS now (December 12) not later/ don’t worry it will be your last fight!!@RondaRousey,” Justino said.

Rousey, who fights at 135 pounds, believes money is what’s keeping the fight from happening and not the weight issues.

“She’s just waiting to be offered enough money to get her ass kicked,” said Rousey during an “Ask Me Anything” session on Reddit.

She also mentioned Justino’s reported use of steroids before in her career. “Cyborg” was reported to have tested positive in 2011.

“The delay is all about money, not her weight,” Rousey said. “She made 145 pumped full of steroids. She can healthily make 135 without them. Her shows that she headlines lose thousands of dollars, and the majority of the tickets are given away because no one will buy them.”

“She needs me. So pretty much we’re waiting for her to realize that she needs to fight me before I retire, or she’ll never have enough money to retire.”

Many consider Justino, who is unbeaten in her previous 14 fights, as the only remaining opponent that would pose as a legitimate threat to Rousey’s reign.

The 28-year-old Rousey is undefeated in 12 MMA fights, 11 of which ended in the opening round, and her last three opponents lasted only 64 seconds combined. CFC
