Shortly after winning her first UFC title by defeating Tonya Evinger, Cris “Cyborg” Justino called out her next desired opponent — except she wasn’t from the UFC.

The new UFC featherweight champion continued her running Twitter feud with WWE superstar Becky Lynch, again asking for a match at Barclays Center on Aug. 20.

“I won my #ufc214 fight @TripleH now I want @BeckyLynchWWE in the @wwe at #summerslam,” Justino tweeted after beating Tonya Evinger by third round TKO on Saturday night at the Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif.

Justino has been calling out Lynch, a former Smackdown women’s champion, and one of the catalysts for the companies “women’s revolution,” since early July. She tweeted a fantasy SummerSlam billboard featuring her and Lynch while take a jab at Ronda Rousey. Lynch has yet to be booked in a match for SummerSlam.

“#SummerSlam2017 #CyborgNation Vs The World! If @WWE can’t get Rowdy in the ring I’m not afraid of @BeckyLynchWWE,” Justino tweeted.

Lynch was all for the bout, tweeting:

“I’ve never backed down from a challenge. Come at me bro.”

While the fantasy would be a headline grabber at SummerSlam, Justino still has business to attend to in the UFC.

Justino said she wants her next MMA fight to be against two-weight division champion Holly Holm.

“I don’t know what comes next, but I would love to face Holy Holm,” Justino said in a statement. “I think she was a great champion and fans would like to see us fight.”

The site Justino would like to see next, however, is Lynch standing across from her in Brooklyn.

Think they'll jump at this one?

How great would it be if they did a bait-and-switch and sent Baszler out there to shoot on her or something? Assuming, of course, that Cyborg can even pass a drug test.

Cyborg would still beat the shit out of Baszler, maybe if the whole 4horsewomen (the actual ones) gang up on her

Yeah, you're probably right (although Baszler would have a month to train while Cyborg wouldn't be training for a fight and would be just one month removed from one), but I think it'd just be entertaining to see Cyborg's face when she realizes that she isn't getting into what she thought she was.
