By the look of Tate’s face, it’s hard to imagine this was still the first round as Nunes had it completely rearranged.
The women’s division within the UFC also continues to be wide open as we’ve seen new bantamweight champions crowned in three consecutive title defenses. It all started when Holly Holm defeated the Ronda Rousey at UFC 193 on November 15th, 2015. Tate then beat Holm in Holm’s first title defense at UFC 196 before Nunes took the championship last night.
