The UFC champion accused the Brazilian of trying to prolong the conversations so that she can extract as much payment as possible. “She’s just waiting for them to offer her enough money to get her beaten up,” she wrote, in a question and answer session with internet users on the “Reddit” website.

“All this delay is because of money, not weight. She weighs 66 kg on steroids. She can weigh 61 kg without it. Events at which she is featured lose thousands of dollars because no one buys. She needs me. So, basically we're waiting for her to realize that she needs to fight me, or else she'll never have enough money to retire,” added the American fighter.

Despite all the rivalry, Rousey doesn't believe she needs to face Cyborg to make her name grow. “I would like to give her a beating before I retire, but even if she shows up to fight or not, I will leave the sport undefeated and happy either way,” concluded the athlete.
