Anyway I hope this isn't going to descend into flame wars! Be gentle! I'm not trying to start a fight! lololol

She was holding back....but being fair, we only saw her truly fight once before Vol.3. We saw her fight against Glynda, who fared well against her considering Glynda wasn't even 1% Maiden. Granted, there was the fact Cinder was standing on a plane, but still, Glynda didn't have much problem dealing with her attacks.

The only other time she did anything was against faceless mooks that anyone could beat, and a bit against a Ruby that could hardly walk.

Based on that, no, that would not be enough for Cinder to defeat Ozpin. If even Glynda had no real problem against Cinder's mighty lava blasts and such, Ozpin would have curb-stomped her.

Well, sentences like that one are more likely to start a fight than anything else here.
