TMZ caught up with Wanderlei Silva and got his thoughts on a potential Ronda Rousey vs. Cris Cyborg bout.
Silva says that if Rousey wants to be known as “the best in the world” then she “has to” fight Cyborg.
“Cyborg, for 10 years she don’t lost. She don’t lost. You can’t say you are the best in the world before you fight against Cyborg. After (Rousey) beat Cyborg then I take off my hat,” Silva said. “Before fighting Cyborg, shhhhhh, be quiet.”
“Cybrog is great. I love Cyborg. She is my good friend and I know what she can do. I think that Ronda is a really good fighter. She fight really well. She work with her hands. I think this can make the best fight for womans of all time,” Silva, a non-native English speaker told the tabloid video crew.
Currently Rousey is the UFC women’s bantamweight champ and is expected to face Miesha Tate for the third time in the fall. Rousey’s last bout against Bethe Correia was a 34 second KO and is believed to have been the UFC’s biggest pay-per-view of the year.
