Miesha Tate replaces Cat Zigano as the TUF Coach to set up rematch with Ronda Rousey

By Anthony L. Gonzalez, Real Combat Media Editor in Chief

Las Vegas, NV (May 29th, 2013)–The UFC has confirmed that Miesha Tate will replace Cat Zigano as the UFC TUF coach. Cat Zigano suffered an injured knee during training. Cat had suffered a torn Meniscus and ACL while doing vertical jumps in practice. Zigano had surgery Tuesday and will be out six to nine months.

Miesha Tate (13-4 MMA, 0-1 UFC), was Tko’d by Cat Zigano (8-0 MMA, 1-0 UFC) earlier this year. Now Miesha Tate will get a chance to avenge her submission loss against Ronda Rousey (7-0 MMA, 1-0 UFC) that took place in March of 2012 in Strikeforce. The rematch will take place December 28th in the TUF Finale in Las Vegas. This is a bitter rivalry and fued.

“This is what we really wanted all along,” Rousey told Yahoo! Sports. “Everyone said an ‘Ultimate Fighter’ between me and Miesha would be the best. We have a personal history with each other and this is a personal show. “For some reason, me and Miesha are intertwined in fate like Ali and Frazier or something like that. I think people will look back at this as one of monumental rivalries and look back at this as one of those things that really cemented women’s MMA.”

Miesha Tate felt she was cheated with the stoppage in her last fight. “I felt I was cheated a little in that fight with Cat,” she told Yahoo! “I had two solid rounds and one not-so-good round. Either way, I felt I was meant to be here and it’s come full circle.”

The Ultimate Fighter reality show will debut September 4th on FOX Sports 1. This will be the first time that men and women will be on show together, competing for a contract with the UFC.
