One of the UFC’s most recent additions to the women’s 135-pound division, Cris “Cyborg” Justino, could be looking to get some work in with a UFC veteran.

Alhough she is coming off a loss at UFC 200, there is still no denying that Cat Zingano remains one of the most dangerous and well-rounded fighters in the women’s bantamweight division. These qualities likely stuck out to Cris “Cyborg” Justino, as the two went back and forth on Twitter about the possibility of training together.

Justino currently holds the Invicta FC women’s featherweight title. Recently, Cyborg had her first fight outside of Invicta FC during her title reign at UFC 198 against Leslie Smith at a 140-pound catchweight. Justino started her UFC career off perfectly with a first round TKO victory over Smith.

There has been no word since about who, where, or when her next fight will be from either Justino or the UFC. However, Cyborg intends on defending her Invicta title next rather than making another foray into the Octagon.

The conversation started with Zingano posting a picture on Twitter this past Wednesday, showing off some battle scars from her UFC 200 fight with Julianna Pena.

@CatZingano you still in Cali? — Cris Cyborg (@criscyborg) July 14, 2016

Cyborg then proceeded to drop the hint of potentially having Zingano in camp with her to help train.

@CatZingano starting camp Soon, looking for a training partner — Cris Cyborg (@criscyborg) July 14, 2016

And Zingano seemed to be on board with the idea.

I got your back 100%

For all intents and purposes this does seem like a genuine offer from Justino, and a genuine acceptance from Zingano.

With Zingano now riding a two-fight losing streak, working with a fighter of Justino’s caliber could be beneficial for both parties. Let’s not forget, back before Ronda Rousey suffered her first defeat, the big call in the UFC world was for the super fight between Rowdy and Cyborg.

Both fighters certainly have a lot to offer each other, and time will tell if these Twitter-laid plans come to fruition.
