When Miesha Tate beat Jessica Eye at UFC on FOX 16 in July, she earned herself another shot at Ronda Rousey. It would have been her third, after two unsuccessful attempts to defeat the seemingly untouchable women's bantamweight champion.

But UFC president Dana White had other things in mind.

Rousey will now face former boxing world champion Holly Holm at UFC 193 in Australia, later this year. Tate, on the other hand, was scheduled to meet Brazilian slugger Amanda Nunes. But she won't, as she revealed to GNP1.de.

"She never was (my next opponent)," said Tate. "I am very frustrated with the UFC. I am not in a position where I feel like I need to be pushed around. Like, ‘you take this fight, you take that fight'. It makes no sense to me. I am not the champion, yet I am fighting all the number-one contenders. And Nunes is ranked number four in the world, Holm number eight in the world. What is wrong with that picture? I am not the champion, yet I am fighting better girls than the champion is fighting -- and I am not getting paid what the champion's getting paid. That is the champion's job to fight the best girls in the world. So when I am the champion, then we will talk."

With the fight versus Nunes likely not taking place, Tate is uncertain what the near future will hold for her instead.

"I don't know. I am in a very awkward stage in my career right now, where I don't know what is the best next step for me, but I know that I am not gonna be pushed around by anybody," she said. "More things have to be contractually agreed upon, instead of verbally. That's what happens when you can't come to a verbal trust point. I'm gonna have to have things written down from now on."

Tate also talks about her newly found passion in acting, has some advice for Holm, and more in the video. You can watch it above.
