So let me get this right; Ronda has been offered a contract to fight Cyborg and she refused? When did this happen? By whom? And in what organization?
Post the link where this offer was made.

No use on offering a contract when Ronda hides in 135 while saying she could fight others at 145, not Cyborg tho. She ducks.

Didn't Cyborg have an offer to join the UFC but she opted to sign with Invicta instead?
Explain to me again how Ronda is ducking her.

Yep gonna get paid by Zuffa to fight in Invicta so she could get used to 135. Then she was gonna die cutting 10lbs and the deal fell through.

I did, apparently you dont understand the game so you be going around in circles and yelling "tell me again, tell me again"

Zuffa offered to PAY her to fight in Invicta since they didn't have a 145 division. She decided that wasn't good enough and signed directly with Invicta so she could build her stock. Because apparently Invicta has a better marketing machine than the UFC.
So when given the chance to sign with the organization Ronda fights for, she declined. And has opted for chirping about Ronda from a far.
Cyborgs stock is the equivalent of bitcoins.

No, you didn't. Or maybe you don't understand what "ducking" is.
Overeem is offered a fight with JDS. He says no. Then calls out a retired fighter he's already beaten. That's ducking.

Cyborg will lose to Rousey if they fight. It won't even be close. She better just stick to the part time kickboxing and forget about 135

Here allow me. If cyborg can't knock rousey out in the opening exchange rhonda will slam her to the mat like she does with everyone else and then proceed to tool cyborg on the ground until the inevitable arm snapping occurs.

And last night baars showed how amateur cyborgs striking really is. She's a wild power puncher and that's it. Baars tooled her badly. It's gonna take a good technical striker with good TDD to give rhonda problems. Cyborg is easy for her imo cause her extremely wild striking approach will lead her right into Rhonda's clinch. And well we all know what happens from there lol

According to ppl that train with her. Funny we've never seen that ground game in action in mma. Even if rhonda doesn't get the sub she will control her easily imo

that's cause she never had to use it. but she won bronze at abu dhabi before. similar to barao and aldo, they do all their damage on the feet and never let it go to the ground.

Here's the problem I see Cyborg having; the clinch.
I watched the video of Cyborg/Baars a little bit ago. Baars size, jab and technique was just too much. When Cyborg got into the clinch she was able to toss her around, but that's about all she could do.
The clinch is exactly where Rousey wants to be. And I think Ronda will be able to avoid a stand up fight much easier than Cyborg can avoid the clinch.

True, but I don't think she's gonna be able to handle an Olympian like rousey on the ground.

Maybe with a triangle. But as we've seen triangles aren't Rhonda's thing. It's gonna be kinda hard to slam an extremely skilled judoka beast that's violently trying to snap your arm in half
