I think that’s a fight everyone wants to watch,” Justino told USA Today’s site MMA Junkie. (SLIDESHOW: These Are The Sexiest Photos Of Ronda Rousey On The Internet)

The Brazilian-born fighter also added, “I think they ask the same [questions] to her. I think everywhere, they ask the same thing. That’s why I think this fight needs to happen.

Rousey has not returned to fighting since losing at UFC 193 to Holly Holm, and it is unclear at this time when she will return.
