Ronda Rousey was victorious at UFC 170 with another first-round stoppage. This time she won by TKO with a beautifully timed knee to the liver that floored No. 3-ranked Sara McMann. <\/p>\n
McMann dropped to an all-fours position, and Herb Dean stepped in to save her from further punishment. Almost immediately following the fight, the name Cris \"Cyborg\" Justino cropped up as a potential challenger for Rousey's belt. <\/p>\n
Cyborg herself tweeted post-fight trying to get the fight. <\/p>\n
That is complete nonsense, and the MMA community needs to stop helping promote the foolishness. <\/p>\n
The fight may happen, but it will not happen anytime soon. Until then, the focus should be on the current UFC bantamweights who are working their way up the ladder. <\/p>\n
There are a lot of hurdles for this fight to happen. The firstand biggestis that Justino is not even in the bantamweight division. She is a featherweight, and in spite of her recent commentsto Inside MMA about trying to drop to 135 she has never proven the ability to do so. <\/p>\n
All Im promising is that I will give 100 percent to try to get to 135 to make this plan happen. If I do, I will still listen to my doctors advice and fight no more than three times at 135: first to win the Invicta belt, the second time to kick your ass and the third time to kick your ass again so that the world can see it wasnt luck. <\/p>\n
You can even have me tested every week up to the fight. That way you will not have an excuse after I kick your ass. <\/p>\n
Should she be given Rousey immediately with no proof she can make the weight? Absolutely not. That would damage the UFC brand to do so. <\/p>\n
Cyborg has even missed weight at featherweight. She came in seven pounds overweight for her fight against Hitomi Akano back in 2009. She has not missed weight since then, but again, this has all been at featherweight. <\/p>\n
