For many MMA fans and experts Chris Cyborg It would be the biggest challenge of the UFC champion's career Ronda Rousey. But, if it depends on the blonde, it could also be the last. In an interview, Ronda talked about what her ideal retirement would be like and revealed her plans to beat Cyborg in the octagon and, shortly afterwards, return her belt to president Dana White.

“I have this idea in my head that my last fight will be beating Cyborg and, when Dana puts the belt on me for the last time, I will be able to take it off my waist and give it back to him. But, you know, if she doesn't take a step forward, I can move on and do other things in my life", said the champion, in a chat with the press at her gym, the "Glendale Fighting Club", in an excerpt reproduced on the “Combate” channel website.

Furthermore, Ronda didn't miss the chance to needle Cyborg by reiterating that she hopes the duel will happen, but that she won't be the one to make sacrifices to make the fight happen. “She is the one who will fall into darkness without me. I really hope (that fight happens), but it just depends on her. I'm not going to run around chasing her and she's in no position to see me doing that. She is a fraud. If you can hit 145 pounds using steroids, you can stop using them and lose weight,” she teased.

Before worrying about Chris Cyborg, or even the end of his career, Ronda Rousey will have a great challenge ahead of them on August 1st. On that date, the bantamweight champion comes to Rio de Janeiro (RJ) and puts her belt on the line against the undefeated Brazilian challenger Beth Pitbull. The duel will be the main fight of UFC 190.
