Nice. I see no problem with this fight as there are a lot of inmediate rematches in the UFC right now.

Can Nunes last 25 minutes? It's possible she could have lost her last fight vs Shevchenko if it was a 5 rounder.

If she couldn't finish Valentina good luck with Tate.

This also opens up the possibility of a Holly vs Cat at 200, which for me would be more interesting than the rumoured Cat vs Julianna Pena.

Glad this fight is happening. Nunes will probably mess Tate up early, fail to finish, gas, and get submitted.

It's not that I don't think Nunes deserves a title shot but I just don't think she is ready to go 25 minutes. I think hey should have at least given a co-main on a Fight Night vs someone like Pena.

Be funny as hell if we get a fourth champ within a year.

Looks like they are trying to make Ronda vs Holm 2 then.

Anyway, Miesha owns Nunes halfway through the fight.

I'm surprised they didn't do Tate-Holm II. I think Dana White's imagined beef with Holm is probably the reason why we're not seeing the rematch.

I'm actually more interested in seeing Tate/Cat II, than Tate-Nunes.

@unbeknownst  Zingano needs to win a fight or two before she gets another crack at the title, in my opinion.

Miesha Tate hasn't defended her title for more than a week now, she has been stripped and this fight is for the interim belt.

Prediction: wrong Tate   wrong Submission   wrong Round 4  

I disagree - I don't think it's the best card ever, although they can put some work into getting it there yet with a GSP return.

On the contrary, I love this fight. It gets away from the immediate trend the UFC has been following in rematches. If Tate fought anyone else in the division in the top 5 aside from Pena it'd be a rematch.

I think Tate takes easily earns a submission in the 3rd or 4th round. Nune's hardly made it through round three in her last fight. She was completely exhausted and the fight wasn't at a very high pace.

I agree, not the best card. There's been much better cards than this. They're trying, but there's no way that this will be better than 100 was.

GSP is not coming back. Trust me. If there's another fight to be announced, I'd put money on Lawler-Condit 2.

Yep.


There's a maybe a slight chance he could come back, but it's definitely not gonna be @200.

I think GSP will fight again in 2016 but I don't have high hopes for it happening at UFC 200. I'd have to think Lawler does fight at 200 being he's one the only champ who hasn't been scheduled recently, but if they have him in a rematch they may as well rebook Tate for Holm or Rousey and keep that stupid trend going.
