Summer of Love: The 15 Greatest Photos From Miesha Tate’s UFC Press Tour


(Click all images for full-size versions. Photos via Getty unless otherwise noted.)

Between her appearance in this year’s ESPN Body Issue and her role in the UFC’s recent “World Tour” publicity extravaganza, Miesha Tate has spent a good chunk of this summer on the road, hustling. Much of that time has been spent in close proximity with her arch-enemy, UFC bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey. It’s a tense balance that Tate has needed to strike on a near-daily basis — keeping up the appearance of marketable hostility, while not crossing the line into outright strangling the broad who flipped her the bird.

I was browsing through the latest UFC photos in our Getty Images account the other day, and I came across this rather amazing photo of Tate and Rousey on set at SportsCenter, doing their best not to make eye-contact, as Miesha does her best impression of McKayla Maroney. And so, we decided to gather a few more of the recent photo highlights from Tate’s summer tour. Some are candid and revealing. Some are just nice to look at. Enjoy.
