“I Just…I Don’t Have It Anymore”

 

The above quote is from former women’s bantamweight champ Miesha Tate. After a lackluster performance against Raquel Pennington, Miesha Tate stated to boyfriend and coach Bryan Caraway that she just  didn’t “have it anymore”.

“I’m not showing up anymore in there, I don’t care enough.”

“I just…I don’t have it anymore.”

 

Khabib Nurmagomedov also made an appearance trying to get fellow lightweight Michael Johnson to give up during their performance as he stated “I need to fight for the title, you know this, I deserve…” . Johnson was in a precarious position to say the least, and many fighters would’ve given up, but the tough as nails Johson hung in there until the fight was called.

 

As far as Miesha Tate, the writing was on the wall. She looked bewildered in her last performance against current champ Amanda Nunes and her performance against Raquel wasn’t much better. Her striking looked labored and clunky, and ultimately was ineffective. She reminds me of a Michael Bisping in the fact they’ve been in the game so long you just wanted to see them get a belt. Now that she achieved that, there’s not much else for her to prove. She has a large social media following, and Dana White has already offered her a job elsewhere in the company.

Will Khabib get his title shot? Nobody knows, but at least Michael Johnson knows he’s serious.
