I live like I fight. I kind of do it by feel. The Ultimate Fighter itself was extremely taxing as well, and the time required to wait for them to edit together the show and then for the show to air really allowed me to go take advantage of the movie opportunities that were coming my way.
And by the time I was done with that, I was more than ready and super excited to start camp. I was really reinvigorated after the whole Ultimate Fighter thing and I was just ready to fight again. Some would say Rousey fought the perfect fight the first time, so how does she top it? She disagrees. I think the Sarah Kaufman fight in August of was a perfect fight. I aim for stuff like that. I always try to have not a single wasted movement made. Rousey had to dig deep to get the win though, fighting off a spirited effort from Tate throughout.
After a fierce exchange to open the bout, Rousey quickly closed distance and locked up with Tate. The challenger was able to elude the takedown, but she still ate some hard shots as the two locked against the fence.
Moments later, the bout strayed to the mat, and Tate went for a triangle choke, only to be rebuffed by Rousey. A subsequent scramble saw Tate get her own takedown, but then Rousey went to work from the bottom as she tried to lock in her own triangle choke, all the while firing punches at her rival. Just before the two-minute mark, Tate escaped, and as the two stood, Tate landed several hard shots to the face until Rousey got close and tossed the challenger to the mat.
Rousey looked for her trademark armbar, but Tate got loose and stood, only to get tossed to the canvas once again. After a brief stalemate, the two rose again, with Rousey locking Tate up against the fence until the bell — the first time Rousey had ever been a full round in her career.
Tate smiled at Rousey before the start of round two, aware that her opponent was entering foreign territory, and her confidence was evident as she landed upkicks on Rousey early on. Another thunderous toss put Rousey back in control, but Tate escaped once again. Rousey emerged from her corner for round three with her mouth wide open, but she was still able to push Tate to the fence and hold her there until she was able to drag her to the mat.
There, Rousey quickly sunk in her armbar, and it was all over, with Mario Yamasaki intervening at the 58 second mark.

Rousey was forced to fight more than one round for the first time in her career, however; Rousey dominated Tate physically en route to a predictable, impressive victory.
Tate was able to last two rounds, withstanding punishment along the way, but Rousey eventually wore her down and finished things with her patented armbar in Round 3. This wasn't necessarily Rousey's most impressive victory in terms of a quick finish, but she showed another facet of her repertoire Saturday night by enduring a little bit of punishment herself.
Zingano was replaced by Tate both in the title bout and as a coach on The Ultimate Fighter Although it's possible that a fight against Zingano would have been more competitive, it was certainly interesting to see the rivalry between Rousey and Tate evolve. It is clear that they don't like each other, but Rousey claimed leading up to the fight that Tate's success was good for women's MMA, according to Elias Cepeda of Yahoo!
It's not like I want her to be like permanently injured or retire or anything like that. It's just like it would be nice not to have to deal with her personally, myself, anymore but the notoriety she's gained from this rivalry has helped all the other girls out so I'm happy that she's actually done better because of it.
