— -- UFC women's bantamweight champion Miesha Tate recently sat down with ESPN to watch some highlights from her career.
Some of the tape she'd never seen before, including a clip from high school, when she was a state champion on the wrestling team.
Among the most interesting revelations:
* Tate dated a male wrestler she competed against.
* Tate's first professional fight officially went three rounds, but there was actually a fourth round. The judges wanted it to go to a fifth round but both fighters agreed to let the referee decide the winner.
* One of Tate's amateur fights was in a venue that shared a wall with a Chinese buffet. She's come a long way since then.
