Carmouche will meet former Strikeforce bantamweight champion Miesha Tate on the main card at Key Arena in what will go down as the first UFC women’s fight on network television.

The way Carmouche sees it, the bout’s been a long time in the making. Carmouche fought and won a reserve bout in the 2010 Strikeforce title tournament, which Tate won.

“It’s a matchup I feel like has been a long time in the making,” Carmouche said on a recent edition of The MMA Hour. “I started off fighting in Strikeforce in the tournament that she ultimately won, so it seems like our paths have been crossing our entire careers, so it seems like this is finally our day.”
