miesha tate is the definition of a fighter

[mst-dot]

got tko'd in her first ammy fight..didnt quit
(won next 2 and turned pro)

got highlight reel brutally ko'd in her second pro fight.. didnt quit
(went on 5 fight win streak)

got armbarred by honda... didnt tap (arm snapped)

almost got headkick ko'd again in her next fight... wins by sub with 90 seconds on clock

gets brutalized by zingano...
accepts rematch with person who broke arm.. loses again

get dropped by mcmann breaking her orbital bone... wins fight anyway

fights holly holm, leaves her unconscious at the end of the 5th wins title!

def one of the most resilliant(spelling) fighters today

all thats missing is revenge on honda

 

[sangreporsangre]

She's probably the toughest person ever to have the nickame "Cupcake"

 

[TinoSpezza]

Much hespect for Miesha's spirit.




... and her ass.

 

[The lord of bones]

She'll never be as good as Ronda, Holly will earn a rematch and get that belt back regardless of who's holding it.

 

[Project 86]

Tate has more heart and fighting spirit than most male mma fighters

 

[loisestrad]

Holly will earn a rematch and get that belt back regardless of who's holding it.

That's doubtful, as she has been exposed as a one trick pony.

 

[The lord of bones]

That's doubtful, as she has been exposed as a one trick pony.

A one trick pony? She was winning the fight until the submission, she stuffed 7 of 9 takedowns. McGregor is more of a one trick pony than Holly is.

 

[fluffball]

What is Holly's one trick? Is it being a champion boxer? Kickboxer? Her amazing footwork? Her strength? Her TD defense? Which one gets to be her one trick?

Lol cuz Meisha's BJJ is soooo compatible to Nate's

Conor is a better fighter than Holly.

Nate is a better fighter than Meisha

Dont even try

They might be better fighters than the women but when Conor is fighting against men and Holly is fighting against women Conor is the more one-dimensional fighter.

Didn't he get taken down by Nate who everybody thought would have zero wrestling?

 

[Dutch Rudder]

Absolutely a fighter at heart, and tough as hell, pretty well rounded skill set.
I just wish she was a little bit better at everything, I'd give her a C in striking, B's in wrestling and BJJ.
I hope she doesn't fight Ronda next.....would be nice to see her say F-that to the UFC, Ronda should have to win a fight before getting a title shot.

 

[qw3rty]

I have to agree, she had a very tough path to the title

 

[Akabignasty]

And don't forget one of the best ass's around

Tate has more heart and fighting spirit than most male mma fighters

 

[kathebrahl]

she's definitely tough as nails. it would be glorious to see her get a win against ronda. I think last time she fought too emotional, resulting in her going for takedowns when that ws ill-advised and not tapping to the armbar. I hope she's able to stick to a gameplan this time

 

[eclectocrat]

Great Aaaaaaaaatitude...

 

[loisestrad]

What is Holly's one trick? Is it being a champion boxer? Kickboxer? Her amazing footwork? Her strength? Her TD defense? Which one gets to be her one trick?

I was being sarcastic, referencing Ronda being considered a one trick pony.

 

[sky]

Yep. So glad she's finally made it, don't care how long it lasts.

Was she too emotional the first time, too?


You know, the excuse of being "too emotional" doesn't really work when you're 0-2.

 

[Gervinho]

Agree with everyone....meisha is as tough as they come. Not the smartest fighter by any means. But the beating she took against cat and the way she took it made me a huge fan. Girl is just a warrior

 

[War Pig]

I thought Holm was the definition of a fighter.
