Cris Cyborg's endless barrage of callouts to Ronda Rousey has gone in vain, and she's none too happy about it.

The Invicta FC featherweight champion has reinvigorated talks of a long-teased superfight with Rousey since decimating Lina Lansberg at UFC Fight Night 95 in September.

But UFC president Dana White threw a wrench in Cyborg's Superbowl weekend plans on Wednesday, when he announced "Rowdy" would end her year-long layoff to challenge Amanda Nunes for the women's bantamweight title at UFC 207 in December.

The Brazilian vented her newfound case of sour grapes on Twitter:

All is not lost for Cyborg, though, as White added the greatest potential matchup in women's MMA history will "definitely happen" should Rousey best Nunes on Dec. 30.
