UFC’s Bantamweight contender, Aspen Ladd has a bone to pick with the former champion, and fan favorite, Miesha Tate. After Ladd missed weight for a bout last year, Tate accused her of cheating and slammed her on social media.
Ladd (9-2-0), hasn’t forgotten about the disrespectful words Tate directed towards her. In a recent interview with LowKick MAA, she expressed her feelings about the former bantamweight champion. She also showed her eagerness to take Tate on in the UFC octagon someday.

“That’s the Karen of MMA,” said Ladd regarding Miesha Tate. “I just wanted to hit her. I still want to hit her. But that’s not gonna be in my future right now. I have a different fight. But just purely… they wouldn’t even have to pay me, honestly. That’d just be a fun one.”
Aspen Ladd then took a shot at Miesha Tate’s current status in the promotion. She said, “the sport’s kind of passed her by. She was a dominant wrestler, and that’s kind of what got her where she is. I think she came back for money. She’s talking a big talk, but she’s not gonna make another title run. And at ’35, she wasn’t doing well. She’s like, ‘Oh, I’m gonna drop weight and see.’ But that’s a tough weight class, too.”
