| "I didn't feel the passion and fire I felt in all my previous fights. I felt out of my element, I didn't feel normal in there whatsoever. It was very strange, it was not a feeling I enjoyed and not something I want to experience again, I don't really know what my next step is here. Even when I was when lined up with Julie, across the cage, I was like, ‘Is this really happening right now? Am I really here? Am I really in this fight?' I felt like I was kind of just in this twilight zone. I did not like that. It's not how I normally feel, not how emotions really run. Normally I'm excited to be there, I'm amped and pumped, and I felt little to nothing, and I mean, she literally elbowed me and got my lip really good and I was like ‘ehh, whatever.' She kicked me in the face, ‘ehh, whatever,' It was not, it wasn't a normal circumstance for me I don't know why that is but I'm asking myself a lot of questions. I think I need to take a step back, relax a minute, and evaluate it. I need to find a way to fire myself up again and get that passion, because I know there's so much I still want to accomplish in MMA. I absolutely want to fight Ronda Rousey twice, but at this point, you know, mentally and emotionally, I'm not right. I shouldn't be getting into the cage if I'm not going into it wholeheartedly for this fight. It's hard for me to admit that, but that's the honest truth. I didn't feel like it for this fight like I did for other fights. I don't know how to explain that, I guess it's something I just have to figure out at this point."

| ya man, Miesha seemed kinda weird the whole week going into the fight and after the fight, makes sense.
At least she didn't look like Kaufman, man am I the only one that noticed Kaufman looked zonked the fuck out | |

| I think maybe Kaufman saw the writing on the wall whereas Tate truly believed she was going to beat Rousey and dominate Kedzie. When neither of those things happened and she was actually dismantled by Rousey perhaps the realization that she'd never be champion again really set in on Tate. | |

| She almost got KTFO a couple times this last fight. You see that fat lip? She tried to hide those battle scars.  | |

I think you are spot on, Kedzi damn near KO'd her twice and seeing ROnda after going life and death with ROusey.....maybe Caraway aint the greatest training partner after all | |

she's a great fighter, i dont see why she wants to walk away... Doesn't seem she does want to walk away. But if u ain't right mentally, it's prob best to stay out of the cage. And maybe women just don't handle losing big fights in brutal fashion very well. We never saw Gina again, granted there was other $$$ out there but it certainly seemed she got the fight beat out of her. | |
