UFC Fight Night: Marion Reneau vs Miesha Tate
Reneau is on a four-fight skid and hasn’t won a fight since February 2018. She is the oldest female fighter on the UFC roster and she’s getting ready to set off into the sunset following a dominant performance. Reneau has shown that she has the skill set to turn in a comprehensive effort albeit not without the most flashy style.
‘The Belizean Bruiser’ is heavy-handed at range and has 5 KO/TKO’s to her name. She’s found it difficult as of late to keep up with range-based strikers and will want to keep the fight against the cage. However, tussling on the ground with Miesha Tate isn’t something that is particularly advisable for Reneau.

She lost her belt to Nunes in the fight prior to her loss to Pennington and effectively retired on a two-fight skid. However, she managed to prove that under the bright lights she’s able to turn out in full force.

Tate’s takedown and ground control game is elite at 135-pounds and her ability to maintain position is second to none. Not to mention, she’s cautious with her striking defense and doesn’t put herself in precarious positions. She’ll benefit from entering into close range to staying at length off Marion Reneau’s jab.
Prediction: Miesha Tate to claim a unanimous decision victory
