UFC president Dana White is very adamant that the returning Cat Zingano is still #1 contender for the UFC Women’s Batamweight championship. However he also feels that before she faces the champ (weather it be Rousey or Davis) she should have a tune up fight first. It should be noted that Sarah Kaufman has been lobbying for a bout with Zingano for quite some time.
Carano has been out of action for over a year. Her last fight was against Miesha Tate at the TUF17 final. Zingano won that fight via TKO earning her the #1 contender spot and a spot on TUF18. However an ACL injury pulled her out of those opportunities only to be replaced by Miesha Tate.
Dana White expressed some concern after Zingano lost her husband earlier this year, but now he says he’s glad she’s in a good enough place to focus on fighting again. (You can check out Dana White’s comments here)

Even though the next contender for the title is unclear one can agree that wether it be Rousey vs Zingano or Davis vs Zingano it should be one hell of a fight. I’m sure I speak for everyone when I say Zingano’s return to the octagon will be one of the most anticipate in a long time.
