For many, before the defeat to Holly holm, Ronda Rousey She was the greatest female MMA fighter in the history of the sport. In this way, it is natural to believe that the former judoka is the biggest challenge for any athlete, right? Wrong. At least in coach Mike Winkeljohn's opinion. According to Holm's coach, the next challenger Miesha Tate may be even more dangerous to her student than Rousey.

“Tate is number one. That makes sense. I think she was the best of all against Ronda Rousey, she deserves it”, said Winkeljohn, on “Submission Radio”. “Being the underdog takes a lot of the pressure off you. There are different styles there. Miesha Tate will fight hard while Ronda was trying to finish quickly. There is a difference in how you draw. In many ways, Miesha is more dangerous than Ronda Rousey. Not generally, but in different parts of the fight, there are women who can be tougher than Ronda Rousey. Under pressure? I think the Miesha Tate better than Ronda Rousey”, He completed.
