The Fiery Women of MMA, In And Out Of The Cage

Miesha Tate Is a Real-Life Superhero

In addition to being one of the most awesome MMA fighters, Miesha Tate also moonlights as a superhero. She was hiking a trail at Mary Jane Falls near Las Vegas when she came across a family and a 6-year old girl named Kai who broke her arm at the top of the mountain. The parents were struggling with their decent down the 2.6-mile trail when Tate arrived and saved the day.

The parents described Tate as “an amazing and humble person” who “saved us hours of hiking and helped us get her to the hospital sooner.” Tate also wrote about the experience on Facebook, saying it was “one of the most rewarding days of my athletic career.” That’s not all she had to say.
