Cris Cyborg has made it very clear that she wants to fight Cat Zingano next in Bellator MMA. Zingano had not spoken out on the potential fight until now.
It seems like Cat Zingano is very interested in the potential MMA fight. She spoke about it in an interview with MMAFighting.
“Cris and I have probably been calling each other out for over a decade at this point,” Zingano said. “The fight I had with Megan Anderson [at UFC 232], I was told to train as an alternate in case anything happened between Cris and Amanda [as a backup].
“We’ve had these conversations and she’s been calling me out since I got to Bellator, I’ve been calling her out since I’ve been at Bellator, but it always seems like there’s crickets afterwards. I’ve heard from them as well, but it doesn’t ever happen. I’ve been waiting, but I believe it will be this year.
“I’ve confirmed March 11 will be my next fight, but I don’t have an opponent or a location confirmed,” Zingano continued. “I’ve been told that I can start training my butt off for that date.
“They’re talking about it, management is talking about it, but I’m just getting ready for whenever. I want that, I’m sure it will be this year, but I’m not sure whether or not that will be next.”
It will be seen if Bellator MMA wants to book a fight between Cris Cyborg and Cat Zingano for the featherweight title. The fight has been a long time in the making.
