Cris “Cyborg” Accuses Dana White And Ronda Rousey of Bullying

"Cyborg" Justino

By FCF Staff

Ronda Rousey and Dana White have been openly critical of Cris “Cyborg” Justino in recent years, and now the Invicta FC champ has accused the UFC champ and president of bullying her.

The UFC and Rousey have repeatedly said that Justino must cut down to 135,  if she hopes to fight the bantamweight champ, and have cited her previous suspension for PEDs as why. These discussions have sometimes led to Rousey and White making other comments about Justino, and the Brazilian has fired back in a recent Facebook post.

Here is some of what “Cyborg” had to say:

I find it Hypocritical of @rondarousey to complain about people in Hollywood being critical of her body image, talking about her arms or the extra weight she carries between fights.

For the past 5 years this same Ronda Rousey and Dana White have used the media to Bully me, opening the door for other opponents to try the same tactics.

Instead of talking about my fighting skills, they would rather use the Media attention to say like I look like a man, or that I Walk like Wanderlia Silva in a dress.

These comments are not made to promote a fight between the 2 best female fighters on the planet!!

they are said to make me feel bad, and are a weak attempt to bully someone into having lower self esteem.

Whether Ronda accepts the responsibility or not, she is a role model for millions of girls around the world and they listen to what she says, often times imitating her actions.

I am glad to see she is more sensitive to the issue of Bullying now that she is experiencing it for herself in Hollywood and hopefully with this comes more maturity and growth as a woman…

Justino went on to say that she is going to use her next fight to raise awareness about bullying. “Cyborg’s” next bout has yet to be determined.
