Having successfully broken a two-fight skid, Miesha Tate is looking ahead to new challenges in order to rebuild her career in the UFC women’s bantamweight division.

Tate (14-5 MMA, 1-2 UFC), who outpointed Liz Carmouche (9-5 MMA, 1-3 UFC) in the co-headliner of UFC on FOX 11, said during a FOX post-fight show that she would be interested in future matchups with Sarah Kaufman (17-2 MMA, 1-0 UFC) or Holly Holm (6-0 MMA, 0-0 UFC). But at the post-event press conference, she leapt at the thought of a fight with Gina Carano.

“I’d like it,” Tate said at the presser. “I’ll take that fight all day long, for sure. I mean, I’ll fight anybody, but I’d love to fight Gina.”

UFC on FOX 11 took place Saturday at Amway Center in Orlando, Fla. The event’s main card aired live on FOX following prelims on FOX Sports 1 and UFC Fight Pass.

Tate, who lost in previous outings against champ Ronda Rousey and Cat Zingano, spoke up after UFC President Dana White reiterated Carano’s position with the promotion and expressed confidence in signing a deal. Carano (7-1 MMA, 0-0 UFC), who walked away from the sport in 2009 to pursue an acting career, remains under contract with UFC parent Zuffa until June.

“I’m confident that we will (sign a new deal), but we’ll see what happens,” White said. “Until we have a deal, we’re not even thinking about anything.”

For upping her star power, Tate can’t do much better at this point than Carano, who initially was rumored to fight women’s bantamweight champ Ronda Rousey before the UFC announced Rousey (9-0 MMA, 3-0 UFC) would fight Alexis Davis (16-5 MMA, 3-0 UFC) in July at UFC 175.

Not all are taking Carano’s comeback seriously. Prior to UFC on FOX 11, Carmouche ventured that the former face of women’s MMA wouldn’t last 10 minutes with Rousey.

Tate, however, needs viable options after losing a second bout to Rousey this past December at UFC 168 following a coaching stint opposite the champ on “The Ultimate Fighter 18.” And offering herself as an opponent might be attractive to Carano, who couldn’t be blamed if she wanted a fight or two before testing herself against Rousey.

At this point, the more realistic option for Tate is a meeting with Kaufman, who outpointed Leslie Smith earlier this week at The Ultimate Fighter Nations Finale. Both once held the Strikeforce women’s bantamweight title; Kaufman ceded it to Marloes Coenen while Tate lost to Rousey.

Then there’s Holm, who’s one of the most popular non-UFC women’s bantamweights. Holm’s reps clashed with UFC President Dana White following initial negotiations, but given the dearth of viable contenders waiting for Rousey, things could always change.

Tate, though, is looking to stay in the mix.
