Miesha Tate's UFC bantamweight return and quest to recapture UFC title

Miesha Tate orchestrated a sensational comeback to the MMA scene in 2021. Displaying her tenacity and skill, 'Cupcake' delivered an impressive third-round TKO victory over Marion Reneau in a thrilling bantamweight clash in July 2021. However, her journey to reclaim the top proved to be a rollercoaster ride.

Undeterred by a subsequent setback, Tate fearlessly faced bantamweight powerhouse Ketlen Vieira in November 2021, engaging in a riveting battle that ultimately concluded with a unanimous decision against her. Unwilling to be defined by defeat, the UFC veteran made a bold move, venturing into uncharted territory by transitioning to the flyweight division.

In her momentous flyweight debut, the determined Tate stepped into the octagon to face the formidable Lauren Murphy in July 2022. Although the outcome didn't sway in her favor, as she fell short of Murphy's relentless assault.

Miesha Tate recently dropped a subtle hint that she may embark on a remarkable journey to reclaim the bantamweight championship. The former champion hinted at the possibility of returning to her previous weight class.

'Cupcake's' highly anticipated bantamweight comeback was slated for a thrilling Fight Night event on June 3, 2023, where she was set to face off against Mayra Bueno Silva. However, to the disappointment of fans and enthusiasts, Tate's return was abruptly derailed due to an unfortunate hand injury.
