Now that Cris Cyborg is officially a member of the UFC, there are a number of appealing opponents for her.

None more so than former women's bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey.

The two MMA stars have never been shy to express their dislike for each other and Cyborg told TMZ Sports that Rousey is still the fighter she wants to beat the most.

"I kill her for sure," said Cyborg. "I'd put everything she said about me in my hands."

Cyborg could only speculate on why other women like Miesha Tate and Holly Holm have expressed an interest in fighting her while Rousey has declined, but she believes their stories will always be intertwined.

"Me and Ronda have a novella together and you have to finish a novella," said Cyborg. "Everybody wants to watch this fight, if you're asking all the fans who they want to see I think they want to see Ronda Rousey and Cyborg."
