Former undisputed bantamweight queen, Miesha Tate has claimed if Ronda Rousey ever wants to make good on a long-mooted return to the UFC — she should first meet her in a trilogy fight.
Tate, who returns to action tonight at UFC Fight Night Des Moines, takes on former featherweight title challenger, Yana Santos in her first outing since 2023.
On that occasion, the Washington native managed to snap a two-fight losing skid, taking home a stunning third round face crank submission win over Julia Avila. With the stoppage, Miesha Tate had racked up her first finish since winning the bantamweight crown at UFC 196 where she won the belt from common-foe, Holly Holm.
