While UFC bantamweight champion Miesha Tate awaits Amanda Nunes at UFC 200 in July, Tate isn't giving her opponent much credit ahead of the bout.

Instead, Tate has her sights set on a third match against former champion Ronda Rousey, estimating her return after about a year off at Madison Square Garden in New York City in November at UFC 205, per MMA Fighting:

"I think everything happens for a reason," Tate said. "I told everybody I was going to beat Holly and I did, and I'm going to beat Amanda on the 9th, and I'm going to go on, and hopefully I'm going to see Ronda in Madison Square Garden. That's going to be great."

Tate has lost both of her two previous fights against Rousey, in Strikeforce and UFC, respectively. As of now, Holm doesn't have another fight lined up.
