UFC 196 results: Miesha Tate chokes Holly Holm unconscious to win UFC championship

Miesha Tate became the first women to beat Holly Holm in mixed martial arts and did so in impressive fashion, submitting the women's bantamweight champion with a guillotine choke at XYZ of the fifth round. Holm spent much of the fight warding off Tate's takedown attempts.

After a dangerous second round in which Tate nearly finished the fight, Holm responded with two strong rounds. But in the fifth round Tate took a risk going for a wild takedown attempt. She got Holm's back and put her to sleep.
