Miesha Tate is very keen to come out of her retirement for a trilogy fight against Ronda Rousey. Tate, the former UFC and Bellator women's bantamweight champion retired last November when she suffered a weird umpiring decision loss to Raquel Pennington in UFC 205.
Tate's decision to hang up boxing came as a surprise to the boxing world, it also shocked the mixed martial arts worlds, before her retirement Tate reached the summit of the 135lbs eight months before her shocking last fight with Pennington. Taking retirement after that summit came as a double shock.
In recent times, the formation of women's featherweight division led many reports to speculate that Tate could well reverse her decision and comeback in the ring. But, at this moment of time, Tate is having no plans of coming back in near future.
But, in development Tate has revealed she is keen for a trilogy fight with women's MMA pioneer fighter Ronda Rousey, who has a very good record over her, winning two matches. So, if Tate wants to make amends of that record then she might consider to come out of retirement.
She was asked about this possible fight with Tate, her answer was no plans of coming out of retirement. If she is hypothetically thinking of coming back at the ring, she would take that fight against Ronda Rousey in a trilogy fight to amend her record.
Tate said that fight will only force to change her plans, that would make it interesting. However, she calms everyone down by saying she has passed her pinnacle point of her career and she is ready to move on to next level in her life.
Tate may never get a chance to amend her record against Ronda Rousey and if she doesn't come out of retirement, then Rousey may move on from boxing too as stated by Dana White.
