Learn from Legends: http://www.legendarystriking.com Dreams do come true. If you don't dare to dream, how will you achieve it? Miesha Tate embodies this philosophy: pursue your dreams and do what you love. Go all in. In this interview filmed in 2009, 24-year-old Miesha Tate had just won the Freestyle Cage Fighting 135 lb title. She was still 2 years away from winning the Strikeforce title, and 7 years away from being crowned the UFC bantamweight world champion. While the glory of winning her first title was sweet, Miesha, and many of her teammates were scrimping to get by, sharing cramped living quarters in the makeshift “fighters’ bungalow” tucked in the attic of the gym. Life was not easy, but it was simple. They woke up, they trained, and they were happy, fueled by passion and earnest, single-minded drive to pursue their dreams. This interview is an excerpt and collaboration with award-winning documentary “Fight Life” by independent filmmaker James Z. Feng. The film takes an intimate look into the dreams and struggles of professional MMA fighters across the USA. ----------------------------------- This project is part of a documentary series with Human of Fighting.
