With the highly-anticipated superfight between Ronda Rousey and Cris “Cyborg” Justino off the table for the time being – perhaps, permanently – it might be time MMA turns its attention towards a fantasy fight between Cyborg and the woman who evaporated Rousey’s aura of invincibility with one highlight reel head kick to steal the UFC bantamweight title.
The primary roadblock that prevented Rousey and Justino from colliding in the past was that Rousey and the UFC insisted that Justino, Invicta FC’s featherweight champion, shed 10 pounds in order to move to bantamweight. Holm, on the other hand, seems more open to moving up in weight to accommodate Justino.
