Holm, McGregor eager to display skills again

“The Preacher’s Daughter” stuffed every Tate takedown attempt from the second round up until the fateful finale. While Tate’s opportunistic, cerebral style against Holm was the ticket to a championship, it’s not the type of game plan she will utilize against Ronda. Holm was up and moving around moments afterward, and Tate praised her fallen opponent. White, on the other hand, was already plotting the next move, which is his mind is a Rousey title shot.

Rousey helped get people interested in women’s fighting, but her sustained dominance created this sense that people were tuning in to see only her.

Now we may get a Tate-Rousey rematch at UFC 200 in July while Rousey finishes up making movies. I don’t know what that means.

“I feel like this is a really tough fight for me, but what else am I supposed to be doing here?” “She’s risky and is capable of catching anyone at any moment”.

To Holly Holm’s credit, she was still able to control large portions of the fight on the front foot, using a wide variety of kicks as well as her trademark boxing skills. “And maybe they’ll let me raise the 12th Man flag now”. “I have so much respect for her because she gave me everything she had”. She shot in on Holly Holm, dragged her down to the mat and took her back in the blink of an eye.

This seems like a shoe-in for Tate, which might take some getting used to for her considering she just pulled off an upset that nobody could’ve predicted.

“You’re never promised another fight. It’s another day. I will come back”. Miesha capitalized; she’s a scrapper.

The welterweight fight between Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz will headline UFC 196, but the women’s bantamweight title fight is being advertised as the “co-main event”.

Miesha Tate celebrates victory over Holly Holm in their UFC 196 womens bantamweight mixed martial arts match.

“I text Ronda, and she said, ‘What happened?'” White said.

Q: What’s next for McGregor if he wins this fight? .

With other fighters in the weight class stepping up, it’s vital Rousey takes her time in her recovery and only comes back when she’s at full tilt.
