Reference for Ketubot 127:7

ה"נ שומרת יבם בבאה מחמת טענה אלא אידי ואידי שתבע הוא ולא קשיא כאן לחלוץ וכאן לייבם דאמר ר' פדת אמר ר' יוחנן תבע לחלוץ נזקקין לו תבע לייבם אין נזקקין לו

[this then should] also apply to a woman awaiting the decision of the levir if she comes with such a plea! Rather, both statements [refer to the case] where the man claimed [and the woman refused], and yet there is no difficulty. Since one refers to the performance of halitzah and the other to that of the levirate marriage. For R. Pedat stated in the name of R. Yohanan: [If the levir] claimed her for the performance of halitzah his request is to be attended to, but if he claimed her for the levirate marriage his request is not attended to.
