The Rousey-Tate rivalry dates back to Strikeforce where Rousey defeated Tate to obtain the Strikeforce Bantamweight Title. In UFC 168, they fought again for the UFC Bantamweight Championship. Rousey won both championship bouts via armbar submission.

Had Tate won over Nunes in their last bout, a third fight between her and Rousey would have been a reality. When she lost that fight, her chances of being inside the Octagon with Rousey for one more time are dim, according to Sportsrageous. However, Tate says that she is learning and trying to get better after her loss to Nunes. Furthermore, Tate believes that Nunes will be able to defend her title against Rousey on UFC 207.
