Shortly after Roxanne Modafferi defeated Antonina Shevchenko at UFC St. Petersburg on Saturday, she made a callout of former UFC featherweight champion Cris Cyborg \u2014 though she quickly added that she was only joking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Sunday, Cyborg responded to this callout from Roxanne Modafferi \u2014 first assuring the flyweight contender wanted no part of the matchup, then congratulating her on her big win. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“@Roxyfighter you don\u2019t want that smoke. congrats on your performance #UFCSaintPetersburg” –<\/em> Cris Cyborg on Twitter<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It did not take long for Modafferi to respond this message from Cyborg, acknowledging that she most definitely doesn’t “want that smoke.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“You\u2019re right, I don\u2019t!” <\/em>– Roxanne Modafferi on Twitter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With her UFC St. Petersburg victory over Antonina Shevchenko, Roxanne Modafferi rebounded from a decision loss to Sijara Eubanks. This loss was preceded by a TKO win over Barb Honchak and a decision loss to Nicco Montano. The veteran is now 23-15 overall. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cris Cyborg, meanwhile, has not fought since December, when her legendary unbeaten run and her reign as UFC featherweight champ came to a shocking end at the hands of Amanda Nunes. At present, it’s not clear when she’ll fight again \u2014 though that’s bound to change soon. She’s a fantastic 20-2 overall. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
