Do you believe Cyborg will ever stop ducking Ronda and make weight?

Nope, Cryborg is afraid. She knows she doesn't have the skills to win, she just relies on her size. She won't lose a few pounds of muscle because she's too insecure. Lose those massive muscles, lose her only chance at surviving in a fight. She'd rather convince the idiots out there that Ronda should bloat herself up to a weight class she doesn't fight in.

cyborg might be a ped abuser or whatever u guys call her but she cleary is not afraid of Ronda. Cyborg fought a freaking muaythai undefeated world champion and hold her ground in that fight. :D

It's cleary cyborg won't make weight with ped or not.Only if she gets a cancer she might be able to make weight.

We can already stop with that fight talk, they won't fight even if iv ban affect somehow ronda weightcut i't will affect cyborg weight cut too.

Conversely it's hilarious that Ronda is so scared of a 5-10 lb weight compromise that she won't even consider it. Funny how Ronda competed at heavier weights her whole life and now she's ducking the only legit challenger there is over a 5-10 lb weight difference.

It's a lot easier for Ronda to cut 5 lbs less weight than it is for Cyborg to cut 5 lbs more weight. Ronda is ducking.

If Ronda is so great surely a 5 or 10 lb compromise won't matter, right?

Many people consider Fedor the goat and he never worried about an opponents size. If Ronda was as good as you casuals think then 5-10 lbs shouldn't matter

"Us casuals"

LOL

Its not like either have faced elite competition but Ronda has at least been fighting people her own size instead of opponents blown up 2 weight classes just to make a fight happen.

Lets face it, at this point if Cyborg doesnt make the weight, the fight isnt going to happen and its not because Ronda is ducking.. I wouldnt want to go up in weight to fight someone that had been popped for roids either.

Maybe Cris should have been content to work on her body naturally and stay at a weight she could fight naturally at instead of using "enhancements" for advantages and then crying because Ronda wont come up.

You can only fight who is put in front of you. It's much easier for Ronda to cut 5 less lbs than it is for Cyborg to cut 5 more lbs yet she won't do it. Why? Fear of facing dangerous competition.

It's much easier to fight housewives and part time mma fighters while ESPN does fluff pieces on you and you bask in the adoration of casuals than it is to challenge yourself and make a real claim at greatness.
 
Why would a champion make concessions to a challenger? Would this be a one and done fight for Cyborg? Let's say Honda fights her 5 lbs. heavier, and Cyborg wins. Does the UFC create a new division for her? I doubt it. Make the weight, or STFU.
 
Wasn't it Ronda who moved down to avoid fighting Cyborg?

ronda is fighting girls that should be in 125 pound weight class but there isn't one in the ufc
 
Ronda doesn't want any of that steroid monkey. Don't blame her.

Cyborg is also a champ and has won as many title fights as Ronda
 
Who cares about the UFC's WBW belt? I just want to see them fight.

If Cyborg isn't even part of her weight class then why should she have to move up to fight her?

Mighty Mouse also competed at 135 for a long time, and his only legit challenges lie at bantamweight, but no one is screaming for him to move up.

DC and Robbie Lawler also used to fight a weight class above. We casuals should accept that they're ducking competition.

It doesn't matter that they're champions now and have nothing to prove. The hardcore fans who watch kickboxing (a totally different sport) insist that they need to move up and fight a steroid abuser, or they will not have any credibility. Who wants to be a rich Hollywood star when hardcores don't love you? Poor Rousey

Ronda fought at 155 in Judo and 145 in Strikeforce until she was getting close to a fight with cyborg. The SF decided to make a special belt for her.

Everyone you mentioned has legit challengers at their weight class. Rousey does not. See the difference?

If you're saying "Cyborg got mauled", you haven't seen the fight. The only round Jorina wond handedly was the first one. It was competitive and Cyborg won 2 out of 5 rounds. No point in discussing it with you.

I'm not a Cyborg fan, and I agree. Kickboxing scored their matches differently, if that had been an MMA match, Cyborg would have won handily.

The difference is your opinion. Mighty Mouse is doing a rematch against a guy he already beat pretty easily in Dodson. Besides Dodson, there are green opponents like Sterling or Cejudo.

At 205? Gustafsson is coming off a loss LOL. Ryan Bader is Ryan Bader.

Rousey does not have to beat "legit" challengers anyway, she just has to beat whoever the UFC puts in front of her, just like any other champion. If Cyborg cannot make 135 then she shouldn't fight the 135-lb champion. That is how weight classes work.

Cyborg just wants to feed off of Rousey's popularity. Cyborg could be the UFC 145 pound champ and she'd still be calling out Rousey because she just wants attention by associating with the biggest star in MMA. It has nothing to do with proving who is best or anything like that

Ronda in her judo days was at 70 kilos, today she fights at 61 with more muscle and she is older. And she can beat Mayweather, Cain and everybody else but can't fight at 66 kilos with only worthy oponent. Shit that are people eating from UFC and saying it's chocolate is unbeliavable

Rousey in her judo days weighed in an hour before competing (same day weigh ins in judo). And had year round random PED tests.

I suspect she'd fight Cyborg at 145 if the weigh in was an hour before the fight, and there was year round random testing. Do you think Cyborg would accept it?
