[VIDEO] Cris 'Cyborg' Justino eats a scorpion

UFC queen Ronda Rousey may believe that featherweight champ Cris "Cyborg" is afraid to fight her, but no one can say that the Muay Thai specialist is scared to try new foods. During a recent training trip to Thailand, the Invicta FC champ downed a black scorpion, and video taped it for posterity (above.)

Justino will attempt to move down in weight, to 135 pounds, this December in Iowa. It is expected that the move will be the first step in her re-positioning herself to fight the UFC bantamweight champ Rousey.

The two have traded insults over the years but the Brazilian seems serious now about challenging the "Rowdy" one. Time will tell how well Justino will adjust to 135 pounds from her old weight of 145 pounds, but for the time being - watch her eat a scorpion. Because, Mondays.
