Cris Justino has no doubt what would happen if she entered the Octagon against Ronda Rousey.
"Cyborg" has made it no secret that she longs for a fight with the former UFC women's bantamweight champion and she has a pretty good idea how things will go down if the fight ever were to occur.
"I kill her," Cyborg told TMZ Sports when they caught up to her at LAX. "I would put everything [she has said] about me in my hands."
Justino said she has an itch to fight Rousey because they have a "novella" together and it must have an ending. Rousey hasn't announced her plans to return to the UFC yet, but it's doubtful that "Cyborg" will be her desired first opponent.
Rousey hasn't stepped into the Octagon since she lost to Holly Holm at UFC 193 back in November. The defeat was "Rowdy's" first in the UFC and ended her 1,073-day reign as women's bantamweight champion.
Holm lost her belt to Miesha Tate, who is slated to face Amanda Nunes at UFC 200 on July 9 in Las Vegas. Tate recently said she would definitely entertain the thought of facing Cyborg, or a chance to finally beat Rousey in a potential third fight, but she isn't looking past her bout with Nunes.
After her first-ever defeat, Rousey went on a downward spiral and even said she had suicidal thoughts, but got through it with the help of her boyfriend, fellow UFC fighter Travis Browne.
Justino has been adamant that she wants a fight with Rousey, bringing it up on several occasions. Earlier this month, after she dominated Leslie Smith and defeated her via knockout just 1:21 into the first round at UFC 198, "Cyborg" intimated that she believed Rousey was ducking her.
"Ronda Rousey, after her last fight, she lost [and] she [didn't] come back to fight again," Justino told TMZ Sports in May. "I think she's trying to recover [from] the loss. I've been waiting when she [is] ready to fight me, we could fight. Ronda, don't be scared, you know? [Don't] be behind your pillow."
