The UFC 183 prelims will be headlined by a womens bantamweight bout between Miesha Tate and Sara McMann, two women looking to fight their way back into a shot at Ronda Rousey and the belt. Willie Gault Jersey . Catch the UFC 183 prelims live from MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, Saturday at 8pm et/5pm pt. on TSN4. Both have already had their opportunities at the gold, more recently McMann lost via first round TKO after taking a knee to the body from Rousey at UFC 170. Tate lost to the bantamweight champion via an armbar submission in the third round of their bout at UFC 168 in the second professional contest between the fighters. Since failing to win the title, Tate has earned unanimous decision victories over Liz Carmouche and Rin Nakai while McMann bounced back with a split decision win against Lauren Murphy. As she prepares for the matchup at UFC 183, Tate knows shell be in the octagon with a dangerous fighter. I think stylistically it (the McMann fight) presents a lot of problems for me, said Tate to UFC.com. Its a very difficult matchup, but those are the kind of fights that when you win, theyre much more rewarding than the fights that maybe youre supposed to win. I know that this is a very even fight. She has her strengths and I have my strengths and if we both come in there putting a hundred percent on the line, it could be anyones fight. While everyone in the bantamweight division is focused on taking on Rousey, a title upset at UFC 184 could present a faster route to a title shot for Tate. I know that if Cat Zingano did beat Ronda Rousey that it would get me a title shot more quickly, said Tate to UFC.com. I feel like a lot of people think the fight with Cat and I was unfinished business. I won the first two rounds and the stoppage in the third round was questionable at best. So theres definitely room for a rematch there and its something Ive been waiting for and that I want again. But at the same time, I really like fighting Ronda, and I definitely think that the third time could definitely be the charm. Meanwhile, McMann told The MMA Hour on MMAfighting.com, that she wanted and went after the fight against Tate. I had a hard time getting people that wanted to fight me, said McMann to Ariel Helwani on The MMA Hour. I know other girls had fights lined up and since Miesha just came fresh off a fight and win against an undefeated opponent and shes pretty game for higher level fights, I thought it would be a very good fit for me. I want to fight the top ranked girls. The 34-year-old Olympic silver medalist is the number three ranked womens bantamweight fighter in the UFC and a victory over her second ranked opponent should put her squarely back into the title contender pole position. Three other bouts will be contested on the UFC 183 prelims as Derek Brunson will take on Ed Herman in the middleweight division, John Lineker will battle Ian McCall in the flyweight division and Rafael Natal and Tom Watson will kick the action off with a middleweight bout. Jerry Azumah Jersey . John Albert Elway, 24, was booked into jail early Saturday morning after an incident near a college campus in downtown Denver, according to jail records. Alan Page Jersey . Markieff Morris and Marcus Morris, city natives, handled the catering for teammates that begged them for the tasty postgame feast.One day after leaving Columbus amid a contract dispute, the agent for Blue Jackets forward Ryan Johansen has tabled another two-year contract offer. According to TSN Hockey Insider Darren Dreger, it doesnt appear the offer was warmly received by the team. Blue Jackets director of hockey operations John Davidson and general manager Jarmo Kekalainen said on Wednesday the team has made offers of $6 million for two years, $32 million for six and $46 million over eight years but each one was refused by the restricted free agent centre and agent Kurt Overhardt. "Conntracts have been extended on our behalf that are close to $50 million. Chase Daniel Jersey. . I think that our group has been very fair. In fact, more than fair. And its nowhere near what they want," Davidson told the Canadian Press. "Were trying to do the right thing for our organization. Were trying to be very fair to a good young man in Ryan Johansen whos got a bright future here. Were trying to do the right thing. And all were getting is no, no, no, no." Johansens focus is now entirely on a short-term contract. Files from The Canadian Press ' ' '
