Tate: I do want to get paid more
Miesha Tate: “I think the contract that transpired when I was still in Strikeforce, transitioning to the UFC, doesn’t reflect what I feel like I’m worth.”
Miesha Tate has fought for the UFC bantamweight title, both losses to Ronda Rousey. But in this two fights her profile was raised and in her next contract she hopes that her fight purses will reflect that:
Following the press conference, Tate told MMAFighting.com that her next fight would be the last on her current four-fight contract, and she preferred to sign a new deal before she fought again.
“I do want to get paid more, of course,” she said. “I think my stock’s gone up a lot since fighting in the UFC. I think the contract that transpired when I was still in Strikeforce, transitioning to the UFC, doesn’t reflect what I feel like I’m worth. So that’s a whole process that has to happen.”
