Cris “Cyborg” Justino roasts Tony Ferguson on Twitter after steroid comment

Early this morning, upcoming UFC featherweight title challenger Cris “Cyborg” Justino posted an innocent sponsor video to her Twitter account. For whatever reason, this video prompted UFC lightweight contender Tony Ferguson – who has almost no association with Cyborg – to accuse her of using steroids.

Is That Steroids?! #JustSayNo

“Is that steroids?” Ferguson asked in response to Cyborg’s post. Cyborg then fired back with a venomous response.

There are easier ways to reach 70,000 followers on twitter than picking fights with women but you seem desperate for attention. pic.twitter.com/7CQXEzW2UW

“There are easier ways to reach 70,000 followers on Twitter than picking fights with women, but you seem desperate for attention,” she said, along with a photo taken moments after a successful USADA drug test.

From there, it looked like the exchange was done, as Ferguson didn’t respond. Cyborg, however, wasn’t satisfied, and shortly thereafter, posted a video of Ferguson deadlifting with undeniably abysmal form.

“Today’s instructional is brought to us by [Tony Ferguson] showing us how to a deadlift with correct form and technique, please share,” Cyborg said. 

Cyborg will next step into the cage on August 29 when she will battle Tonya Evinger for the vacant UFC featherweight title. She was originally scheduled to fight Megan Anderson, but Anderson was forced out of the fight with personal issues.

Ferguson is not currently signed for a fight, but stands out as one of the best lightweights on earth.
