Freshly crowned Strikeforce Women's Bantamweight Champion Miesha Tate hits the town with her title wrapped firmly around her waist after winning it from Marloes Coenen with a fourth round submission last night at the "Fedor vs. Henderson" event in Hoffman Estates, Illinois. Tate is expected to defend her title next against Sarah Kaufman, who defeated Liz Carmouche at Strikeforce Challengers 17 on July 22.

Miesha Tate is hoping to return to action on March 5 at the Strikeforce event planned for that day, according to her Twitter. She earned a title shot against Marloes Coenen after winning the women's 135-pound one night tournament back in August of last year (2010).
