Miesha Tate vs Amanda Nunes a go for UFC 200

[Mishima Zaibatsu]

That's disappointing.

I guess that means Bones vs DC II won't be going down at 200 now.

Unless they have 4 title fights along with Browne vs Cain. Have like a 4-5 hour PPV.

Hmmmmm...... So Brian Caraway Successfully Played Matchmaker despite thoughts of a Holly Remath...:

Caraway suggests Nunes should be first for Miesha Tate, Rousey vs. Holm winner next

it made sense if you think about it, that they wanted Nunes. Meisha is the 2nd best grappler in the Division therefore Ronda is the worst match up, followed by Zingano. Then Holm is probably her 3rd worst match up because the lack of grappling knowledge and Nunes usually fades when there is grappling involved but is dangerous early in the fight. Making Nunes the most winnable fight for Meisha, it made sense to push for the Nunes fight.

Plus now Meisha fights Nunes under the new contract she signed meaning more $$$. Also an argument could be made that Nunes has earned a title shot.

That's too strong of a statement, Meisha has been rocked by McMann (could've been scored a 10-8 round) and got finished by Cat. So saying she'll survive is like guaranteeing it, and Nunes hits harder than Cat or McMann.

McMann lost due to Tate's durability, and Cat won by TKO in the 3rd round, long after Nunez gasses out in her fights. Tate was not KOed, and there is no fucking way that Nunes can deliver a harder beating that what Zingano laid down in that 3rd round.

My MMAth? That term doesn't mean what you think it means. Also, which one of us brought Cat into the conversation?
