Rumours of a romance
Francis Ngannou, the Cameroonian–French professional mixed martial artist who is set to face Tyson Fury in the boxing ring in October 2023, has been linked to another sports star. The rumoured love interest is none other than former UFC bantamweight champion, Miesha Tate.
Miesha Tate's background
Miesha Tate is an American professional mixed martial artist, born on August 18, 1986, in Tacoma, Washington. She gained an interest in MMA while attending Central Washington University and made her professional debut in November 2007. Miesha claimed her first title, the 135-pound FCF Women’s Bantamweight Championship, in 2009.
A picture paints a thousand words
In April 2022, Ngannou and Tate crossed paths at the UFC Performance Institute in Las Vegas. Miesha later shared an adorable picture on her Twitter, showing Francis with her kids. The caption read, "The Baddest Man on the Planet is really just a gentle giant!" However, neither party has confirmed the status of their relationship.
Miesha Tate's family
Miesha has two children from her previous relationship with fellow MMA fighter Johnny Nuñez. Their daughter, Amaia Nevaeh Nuñez, was born on June 4, 2018, and their son, Daxton Wylder Nuñez, arrived on June 14, 2020. Notably, Miesha gave birth to Dax on the bathroom floor at her home in Singapore due to lack of time to reach the hospital. As of now, Ngannou and Tate do not have any children together.
Tate's MMA journey
Miesha Tate joined the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) in February 2013. Her professional MMA record stands at 19 wins, 9 losses, and no draws. In 2016, she decided to retire from the sport to explore other options and start a family. However, in 2021, after a five-year hiatus, she made a comeback. Tate revealed that during her time away, she had been in a "dark place," and now she's ready to make a second surge in her career.
