Ronda Rousey was the star attraction on Saturday Night Live last night, but her appearance on the legendary sketch show didn’t impress one a potential MMA rival.

The former UFC bantamweight queen used her opening monologue on the show to address her shocking defeat by Holly Holm, admitting that the New Mexico fighter was a deserving winner and reassuring her fans that she was fully recovered from the UFC 193 knockout.

But her comedic work attracted the scorn of Invicta champion Cris ‘Cyborg’ Justino, who has long been discussed as a potential rival for the former champion, who will be an interested onlooker when Holm defends her title for the first time against Miesha Tate at UFC 197 in March.
