Miesha Tate becoming UFC bantamweight champion was a feel-good moment for everyone watching. A longtime veteran of the sport, Tate had fallen short against arch-rival Ronda Rousey in her first UFC title shot. Four years later, Tate got another crack at gold against Holly Holm, who was fresh off of her upset win over Rousey at UFC 196.
After being down on the scorecards, with less than two minutes left in the fight, Tate showed the heart of a champion. She latched onto Holm’s back and secured a rear-naked choke for a huge upset win.
Now retired, Tate will always be considered a pioneer of women’s MMA. (MMA Junkie)
