Tate reflects on defeat
“I had my hooks in on her back, one of which was a bit shallow, and I really went to be very aggressive and try to force her from back to belly, belly down, and I ripped two if my ligaments, and I had to have reconstructive surgery,” Tate said in an Instagram post. “It was by far the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do.
“It was harder than coming back after having my two kids, and I, at multiple points, bawled my eyes out and thought I would never be able to fight again, which I really wanted to have that fight. And off of an 18-month layoff, the biggest injury of my career, I can honestly say that I am happy with this performance, and I am happy even in a loss.”
“I am not making any final decisions,” Tate said. “Remains to be seen whether I will fight again or not. I’m not going to clarify either one of those because I think there is no right or wrong answer.”
