Ahead of UFC 198 bout, Cyborg calls out Ronda Rousey ·

One of the baddest women on the planet, Cris "Cyborg" Justino is finally coming to the UFC in May, when she faces off against Leslie Smith at a catchweight of 140 pounds.

Despite her upcoming bout, Cyborg isn't focusing on her opponent, rather she's continuing to call out former bantamweight champ Ronda Rousey.

Remember when @RondaRousey said you have to come to the champ? How about we compromise. 140 super fight for the fans https://t.co/5VW8mnYDO0

Rousey hasn't fought since her title loss in November, and she's not expected back in the UFC until the fall.

Could she take a super fight against Cyborg when the UFC makes its debut at America's most famous arena, Madison Square Garden? Or will the former champ look to avenge her title loss and take on current champ Miesha Tate for her return to the Octagon?

Rousey is currently filming a movie and has not spoken on her return as of yet.
