Ronda Rousey Being Sued by Cristiane ‘Cyborg’ Justino Over Steroid Comments?

Ronda Rousey and Cristiane 'Cyborg' Justino have had a tumultuous rivalry without any blows ever having been thrown at each other. The two have verbally gone back and forth, and on Sunday, Cyborg threatened to sue Rousey for slander. Apparently Rousey accused her of being jacked up on steroids.

"I'm prepared to deal with anything, that's why I'm the champ. I fight in the UFC's 134-ppound division. And, she can fight at 145 pounds pumped full of steroids and she can make weight just like everybody else without them," Rousey claimed.

Cyborg took to Twitter to say that she is thinking of taking legal action against Rousey.

The reason Rousey is making these accusations is because of a one-year suspension Cyborg was hit with back in 2011. At that time the Strikeforce Featherweight Champion tested positive for an anabolic steroid called Stanozol. The test was administered after Cyborg knocked out female fighter Hiroko Yamanaka in just sixteen seconds.

In past interviews Cyborg claims that Rousey "struggles to find an identity." With that, it shouldn't be surprising that Rousey has fired back the way she has.

"She has struggled to find an identity away from Judo and fighting and has used her money and popularity to build an entourage. How many of those horsewoman were around before her career took off," Cyborg said.

"Would they still be helping her if she wasn't paying for their housing and helping their careers? Only she knows that answer, but there has to be a reason why a World Class Athlete would allow themselves to become victim of substance abuse, whether that is pain pills or other mind altering drugs"
