Shortly after winning her first UFC title by defeating Tonya Evinger, Cris “Cyborg” Justino called out her next desired opponent — except she wasn’t from the UFC.
The new UFC featherweight champion continued her running Twitter feud with WWE superstar Becky Lynch, again asking for a match at Barclays Center on Aug. 20.
“I won my #ufc214 fight @TripleH now I want @BeckyLynchWWE in the @wwe at #summerslam,” Justino tweeted after beating Evinger by third-round TKO on Saturday night at the Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif.
Justino has been calling out Lynch, a former Smackdown women’s champion and one of the catalysts for the company’s “women’s revolution” since early July. She tweeted a fantasy SummerSlam billboard featuring her and Lynch while take a jab at Ronda Rousey. Lynch has yet to be booked in a match for SummerSlam.
“#SummerSlam2017 #CyborgNation Vs The World! If @WWE can’t get Rowdy in the ring I’m not afraid of @BeckyLynchWWE,” Justino tweeted.
Lynch was all for the bout, tweeting:
“I’ve never backed down from a challenge. Come at me bro.”
While the fantasy would be a headline grabber at SummerSlam, Justino still has business to attend to in the UFC.
Justino said she wants her next MMA fight to be against Holly Holm.
“I don’t know what comes next, but I would love to face Holy Holm,” Justino said in a statement. “I think she was a great champion and fans would like to see us fight.”
The sight Justino would like to see next, however, is Lynch standing across from her in Brooklyn.
