UFC 200: Miesha Tate vs. Amanda Nunes women's bantamweight title fight set for July 9

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) women's Bantamweight champion Miesha Tate will defend her title for the first time against Amanda Nunes at the monumental pay-per-view (PPV) event on July 9, 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Tate -- who recently inked a contract extension to remain with UFC -- won the title just four weeks ago after she choked out Holly Holm in the fifth round of their title fight at UFC 196 (see it again here). The win was Tate's fifth straight inside the Octagon.
