Miesha Tate rejects Aspen Ladd’s fight proposal: ‘It’s not personal, it’s professional’

Miesha Tate has thought about the fight proposal made by Aspen Ladd and decided to reject it.

A fight between Tate and Ladd made sense from a promotional standpoint, considering both women have had their fair share of exchanges on social media in recent months. Tate has lambasted Ladd for her inability to make weight, with her frightening appearance on the scales at UFC Vegas 38 being a source of ammunition for the former bantamweight champion.

Tate commented on Ladd again, this time over her relationship with head coach and boyfriend Jim West after his approach to cornering was put on full display at UFC Vegas 40.
