Former UFC champion Ronda Rousey has reportedly turned down an offer to fight Cris “Cyborg” Justino.

Justino and Rousey have been part of an escalating feud for months, but one of Justino’s latest tweets makes it look like the fight might never happen. (SLIDESHOW: These Are The Sexiest Photos Of Ronda Rousey On The Internet)

“Lots of rumors has turned down my fight offer, hopefully that ends all the interviews telling people she wants to fight me,” the Brazilian born fighter tweeted late Monday. (SLIDESHOW: UFC Star Arianny Celeste Is Nearly Naked For All Her Fans In These Pictures)

Rousey hasn’t fought since her stunning loss to Holly Holm at UFC 193. There was lots of speculation that she might retire, but those rumors appeared to be put to rest by UFC president Dana White.

Only time will tell when Rousey will return, but if she does fight Justino there’s little doubt it’ll set viewership records.
