Miesha Tate hadn’t stepped into the ring in over a year due to a knee injury but when she did for the first time in 2011, she made sure she had a memorable debut.
During the Strikeforce event on Saturday night at the Sears Centre in Hoffman Estates, IL, Tate submitted Marloes Coenen at 3:03 of the 4th round with an arm triangle choke. With the win Tate becomes the Strikeforce Women’s Bantamweight Champion.
