It takes a certain type of person to date an MMA fighter, given the sacrifices they have to make on a daily basis, mentally, emotionally and physically in order to earn a living and compete at the highest level.

It takes a certain type of person to date an MMA fighter, given the sacrifices they have to make on a daily basis, mentally, emotionally and physically in order to earn a living and compete at the highest level.
With that in mind, who better to date than another fighter who understands what they are going through, is accustomed to that lifestyle, and shares the same passion for the sport.
In this article we’ll take a look at several examples of male and female UFC stars who have dated each other, and indeed in some cases even found the partner that they intend to spend the rest of their lives with.

The main event at UFC Fight Night 88 will pit Thomas Almeida against Cody Garbrandt in a key bantamweight showdown.
But that will not be the only 135-pound match between Top-10 fighters on the docket, as Aljamain Sterling fights Bryan Caraway May 29 from Las Vegas. Newsday first reported the contest on Thursday.
Sterling (12-0) is a perfect 4-0 inside the Octagon, signing a new fight contract following his win over Johnny Eduardo in December. His other UFC victories have come vs. Takeya Mizugaki, Hugo Viana and Cody Gibson.
Caraway (20-7) has won six of his last eight, including a July victory vs. Eddie Wineland. Caraway, of course, is the long-time boyfriend of current UFC champion Miesha Tate.
Bryan Caraway might be just as well known for his own MMA skills as those of his girlfriend, newly-crowned UFC female bantamweight champion Miesha Tate.

Bryan Caraway might be just as well known for his own MMA skills as those of his girlfriend, newly-crowned UFC female bantamweight champion Miesha Tate.
But Caraway (20-7) isn’t about to let those who “troll” him by referring to the fighter as “Mr. Tate” play a role in his career.
Aljamain Sterling, an unbeaten bantamweight who recently signed a new contract with the UFC, has been calling for a bout vs. Caraway for well over a year now. And while the alum of The Ultimate Fighter is willing to grant him such a match, it isn’t over his comments.
“This, to me, is not emotional. That’s now where the sport goes for me,” said Caraway, in an interview with MMAjunkie.com. “If it starts going like that, it becomes a circus. It becomes a bullying mentality and teaches all these kids that if you talk crap and bully people, you get what you want in life. That’s not the way I’m trying to go.
“I’m not trying to get to where I want to go because I’m bullying people. I want to fight (Sterling) because he’s ranked fifth in the world. I don’t care what he says.”
Caraway has won five of his seven UFC fights, including three of his last four. His last match, though, came in July of last year when he bested Eddie Wineland.
“I don’t know what the UFC’s plan is,” he admitted. “They’re trying to say I’m ducking people, but here I am calling out these guys and it’s not happening.”
