Ronda Rousey Unloads On Potential Opponent Cris ‘Cyborg’ Justino For Steroid Usage

Ronda Rousey Unloads On Potential Opponent Cris ‘Cyborg’ Justino For Steroid Usage, Ronda Rousey has a July 5 title defense against Alexis Davis in Las Vegas, though she spent much of her time Friday discussing three potential opponents who aren’t even in the UFC.

The bantamweight champion blistered Cris “Cyborg” Justino for steroid usage, calling it “criminal,” and called for fighters to be banned from competition after one failed test.

She once again said it would be a dream to fight Gina Carano and praised former boxing champion Holly Holm’s skill.

Rousey raved about Davis’ jiu-jitsu and Muay Thai kickboxing skills, but said Davis was far less known than other fighters because of her quiet, unassuming nature.

“I think the reason why people don’t know her so well has nothing to do with her actual talent and more to do with the way she has chosen to promote her fights,” Rousey said of Davis’ low-key style.

There is far more talk among fans and media about Carano, an action movie star who is contemplating ending a nearly five-year fighting hiatus; Holm, the ex-boxing champion who recently won a regional MMA title; and Justino, the only woman to have defeated Carano, than there is about any potential Rousey opponent who is in the UFC.

Rousey said, “I totally adore Gina,” and it would “be a privilege and an honor for me to fight her.”

Rousey said she and her coach, Edmond Tarverdyan, believe Carano would pose a more significant challenge to her than Justino would.

Rousey said she would fight Justino if the UFC wanted her to do so, but she said she’s turned off by what she called Justino’s long-term use of performance-enhancing drugs.
