Miesha Tate dropped by the Invicta commentating booth during Saturday’s event and talked a little bit about how her Rousey-mangled arm is doing:
Mauro Ranallo: When are you supposed to be back in action?
Miesha Tate: You know I haven’t got any clearance from the doctors yet. I’m going in for my two month checkup here in a minute. But you know the arm is doing really well. Definitely beating any predictions as far as my recovery. So… I’m really anxious to get back in there.
Mauro Ranallo: What was the extent of the injury because I know you tweeted a picture of the arm and it wasn’t broken or anything? What happened to the arm in that fight?
Miesha Tate: I basically tore everything. I tore the inner and outer sides of my ligaments attached to the muscles and bone. They actually pulled the bone off with the ligament and then I tore all the muscles around that. So… it was pretty bad, but you know for me it wasn’t really that bad. I think that… I have the motto that as long as you get up one more time than you fall down then… you know what I mean, you are doing something right? So I’ll be back stronger than ever.
Let this be a lesson to anyone who’s considering letting pride f*ck with them when they get caught in an armbar. Don’t do what Miesha Tate did, no matter how badass and tough it made her look.
People CAN get out of them.
We’ve seen it a few times.
But against a real hardcore arm hunter like rousy or mir its probably better accept that its over if they get you there.
You can also take pride in wiping your ass.
A clean ass is a happy ass.
And if you dont love your own ass then who will?
(Slowly raising hand…)
She sounded like she was trying to give a Fedor type quote at the end. lol
I think everything said was actually very logical.
But, what about this? suppose you wrote a catchier post title?
I mean, I don’t wish to tell you how to run your blog, but suppose you added a title that makes people want more? I mean Miesha Tate updates us on her arm | Fightlinker.com is kinda vanilla. You ought to peek at Yahoo’s home page and note how they create article headlines to grab viewers to open the links. You might add a video or a pic or two to get people interested about what you’ve got to say. In my opinion, it would make your blog a little bit more interesting.
