The "fight of the century" will not be remembered as Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao. It will be Ronda Rousey vs. Cris "Cyborg" Justino - if it ever happens.
For years, the two have bickered about how and when they want to meet in the Octagon. Rousey, who fights at 135 pounds, has said multiple times that she'd take on Cyborg if she can make weight.
Cyborg, however, has said the same thing. She fights at 145 pounds and on Wednesday she reiterated that she'd be willing to drop five pounds to see Rousey in the ring.
"Ronda Rousey already cleaned out her division and she's doing fight number three with Miesha Tate and this shows for us she already cleaned the division," Cyborg said on ESPN SportsCenter. "When a champ cleans out a division, everybody saw this, the champ goes up to fight somebody else. I'm a champion at 145 and I can drop to 140 to fight her."
Cyborg said her willingness to drop five pounds is already an unprecedented compromise. She said most champions in Rousey's situation would move up to a higher weight class having cleaned out their own - an argument that some find null and void if they look at Cyborg's career, which mirrors Rousey's in that she's also cleaned out her division...
