Following comments from Ronda Rousey, where the UFC champ accused Cris “Cyborg” of taking PEDs and criticized her abilities, the decorated fighter has returned fire.

Rousey recently claimed that “Cyborg” is avoiding the UFC’s new drug testing regiment, and relayed she isn’t “impressed” with the form Strikeforce champ’s skills.

Well, in a follow up interview with MMA Fighting.com, “Cyborg” responded to the bantamweight star. Here is some of what the Invicta FC Featherweight Champions had to say:

“As always, (Rousey) is trying to pick her next opponent. She is running away from me and asking to fight Bethe (Correia),” “Cyborg” said. “If she was so sure about everything she says, she would have already accepted to fight me like she accepted to fight Gina Caranoat any weight, fight Cain Velasquez, (Floyd) Mayweather. Grow up, Ronda.”

“Cyborg” also said that Rousey although is trying to “defame” her, but that she’s not bothered by the Judoka’s comments.

The 29 year-old fighter, who hasn’t fought since she stopped Marloes Coenen last summer, is expected to make her bantamweight debut for Invicta FC in the coming months.
