Cat Zingano

Cat Zingano’s nickname, “Alpha,” tells you everything you need to know. When she steps into the ring, there’s no doubt about her dominance. Hailing from Winona, Minnesota, Zingano blends Brazilian jiu-jitsu, wrestling, and Muay Thai to formidable effect.

In 2013, she became the first female UFC fighter to win a match via technical knockout, an impressive feat achieved against the formidable Miesha Tate. Zingano maintained an undefeated record through nine fights before suffering a loss to Ronda Rousey in 2015.
