Just let the cat out of the bag, Zingano!
It looks top UFC women’s bantamweight contender Cat Zingano has booked herself a fight.
Alpha Cat (9-1) has not been seen inside the Octagon since falling victim to Ronda Rousey’s lightning quick 14-second armbar at UFC 184 and after spending some time training in Thailand it appears as though she’s nearing her return to the cage.
The number three-ranked female 135er was even visited by USADA this week.

Zingano has been campaigning for a title shot against newly crowned bantamweight queen Miesha Tate and although she has a dominant TKO victory over the champ, it is expected that Ronda Rousey will be matched up against Cupcake next.
However, Zingano all but confirmed on social media that she has a fight booked, but she has kept her opponent a secret thus far. Holly Holm said after her losing the belt that she wanted a quick turnaround… perhaps that fight is on the cards?
I guess we’ll have to wait to find out.
I'm ready…. Got some damn good news from the @ufc big guy today y'all!!! #alphacat201… https://t.co/Ow3joRz8V9 pic.twitter.com/iJyJRFkPDx
