With Ronda Rousey losing to Holly Holm last year, many of her fans have already been yearning for her next fight.

It can be noted that it was the first loss of the 29-year-old mixed martial artist after recording 12 straight wins since her career in MMA started.

Who would be her next opponent? Will their fight happen this year?

While there have been no announcements yet as to who she will face next, one name has been making online as the most likely opponent especially that she has already expressed her interest to fight Ronda Rousey when she finally comes back.

According to ESPN, Cris "Cyborg" Justino would like to take a match with the "Furious 7" start at UFC 205 in Madison Square Garden on Nov. 12.

"I'm not trying to inspire you to suddenly become a better person, or become anything you're not," Justino reportedly wrote on Facebook referring to a possible next fight with Ronda Rousey. "But there was a time in your life when you told people you wanted to fight me."

"Maybe you didn't quite understand the way the world worked then, but you also didn't care what anyone thought," she added. "I guess what I'm trying to tell you is that you don't need to be the champ to fight me."

In the meantime, People reported that the MMA superstar is currently working out double-time.

As how her trainer, Edmond Tarverdyan, would put it, "The key to success is long hours, instead of just coming in the gym and getting a quick workout."

According to her trainer, she has been spending up to six hours a day for six days a week in the gym to do strength and conditioning training, aside from boxing conditioning.

"You're stretching out your hips, shoulders, knees," Tarverdyan shared. "You're getting a nice warm-up before throwing any punches so you'll be nice and warm to prevent injuries."

Is Ronda Rousey already preparing for her next fight? Will it be with Justino? Stay tuned for confirmed updates here.
