- The Ronda Rousey world tour of destruction makes its next pit stop at UFC 190 on Aug. 1, where she'll take on Brazilian buzzsaw Bethe Correia. Correia has already disposed of two of Rousey's famed "Four Horsewomen" stablemates, creating a natural rivalry between the fighters.
- Alexis Davis exorcised some serious demons at UFC 186 in April, surviving an early onslaught to come back and defeat Sarah Kaufman via second-round armbar. The stirring victory came after Davis had already tasted defeat against Kaufman twice during her 23-fight career.
- Miesha Tate's quest to work her way back into a title fight with her nemesis, Ronda Rousey, continues on July 25 at UFC on FOX 16 against Jessica Eye. Tate is on a three-fight winning streak since losing to Rousey in 2013, while Eye TKO'd Leslie Smith in her last outing at UFC 180 in November.
