With yet another devastating victory under his belt, Ronda Rousey was once again the target of questions and speculation about his possible future fight against Chris Cyborg. And, once again, the UFC champion took the opportunity to criticize the Brazilian, once again accusing her of ingesting prohibited substances.

Rousey retained the UFC women's bantamweight belt by overwhelmingly knocking out the challenger Bethe Correia, with a knockout in just 34 seconds. Cyborg is also a dominant champion at the Invicta event, defeating her last two opponents in less than a minute. However, there is an obstacle to the duel: the Brazilian fights at featherweight, weighing 66 kg, while Rousey operates in the 61 kg division.

Asked by the report SUPER FIGHTS If she was prepared to once again have to deal with questions about Cyborg, Rousey responded: “I'm prepared to deal with everything, because I'm the champion. I fight at 61 kg in the UFC and she wants to fight at 66 kg on steroids. She could make weight, like anyone else, without the steroids”, criticized the champion.

Faced with the impossibility of facing Cyborg at the moment, Rousey turned her focus to Miesha Tate, who should be his next opponent at the end of the year. The two have already faced each other twice, with two dominant performances from Rousey. “Every fight is a challenge. This fight [against Bethe] was a challenge. One advantage I have is that my opponents never know what they are getting into when they arrive to fight. That's why Miesha is such a challenge, because she already knows what to expect. She has improved a lot since we last fought, so I want to see what she will bring,” said the fighter.
