Chris Cyborg doesn't seem to be very willing to face Ronda Rousey. After Edmond Tarverdyan, coach of the North American star, reveal that he would like to see his pupil face the Brazilian, the current UFC featherweight champion assured that she sees no reason for this duel to happen, stating that she is at a higher level than Ronda.

“If Ronda wants to get back into a fight, believe me it’s better for her to fight Miesha Tate. I'm at another stage in my career. I wanted to fight Ronda when she was psychologically well and confident,” she declared, via her official Instagram.

Although she is not interested in fighting against Ronda in the UFC, Cyborg has not ruled out facing the blonde. Ironically, the Curitiba native minimized Tarverdyan's qualities as a trainer and suggested that the confrontation with Rousey take place at WWE, an entertainment company.

“Now, if she wants to put on a good fight for the fans, we can do that in WWE. It would fit perfectly for her to go to Hollywood, and for me it would be another challenge in my career. It’s a brilliant thing, her trainer would fit perfectly into her corner of WWE, he’s nothing more than a joke,” she concluded.
