...wow. Not really sure where this took the dramatic turn for D’Alelio, who was winning this one early, but she fell apart fast and Miesha capitalized. Tate was getting low on stamina, and her takedown defence needs work, but she kept coming forward and eventually got herself into a position to lock in some submissions. D’Alelio has some moster toughness/Ko resistance, as she took a huge beating here, damage-wise.
Meisha Tate glares at her opponent from the opposite corner.

A pretty fair match today. I can't say who will be the one who will be raising her fist after the match.

...wow. Not really sure where this took the dramatic turn for D’Alelio, who was winning this one early, but she fell apart fast and Miesha capitalized. Tate was getting low on stamina, and her takedown defence needs work, but she kept coming forward and eventually got herself into a position to lock in some submissions. D’Alelio has some moster toughness/Ko resistance, as she took a huge beating here, damage-wise.
What a load of shit... 
Also, I noticed Sarah doesn't exactly avoid anything either, even though I've put 4 points into her dodge. The simulator just fucking hates me. Good fight, but Sarah should have had this one... I'm getting sick and tired of this fucking shit. 
Fucked up is what that is too... 
and it's not that I dislike Tate at all either, far from it... but that's even above board for her. Also no fighters should be allowing their opponents to hit them 98 times in a fight, but Sarah does... lol Good thing she's tough as fuck, but still... If I could figure out a way to fix that, she'd be absolutely and disgustingly good. 
Have 9 points in celebration of this monumental achievement!
