Video: Why UFN 52's Miesha Tate is recruiting female fighters to Las Vegas

Las Vegas has become UFC fighter Miesha Tate‘s new home, but the Washington native is hoping she can convince some other female fighters to join her in Sin City.

Tate (14-5 MMA, 1-2 UFC), who fights Rin Nakai (16-0-1 MMA, 0-0 UFC) on Saturday at UFC Fight Night 52, recently spoke to our partners at SHOOTMedia about her new team at Xtreme Couture and how she’s persuading training partners to venture to the Vegas gym.

Check out the video above, which also includes her thoughts on the Nakai matchup, a possible rematch with Cat Zingano and her new management team, which is owned by NASCAR driver Kevin Harvick.

And catch her fight early on Saturday morning when UFC Fight Night 52 streams live on UFC Fight Pass (12:30 a.m. ET) from Saitama Arena in Saitama, Japan.
