Cat Zingano’s second Bellator MMA bout is set.
Promotional officials confirmed to MMA Fighting that Zingano will face Olivia Parker at Bellator 256 following an initial report from ESPN. The event takes place April 9 at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn. and will air on Showtime.
After a nearly two-year layoff, Zingano made her Bellator debut in September at Bellator 245 and picked up a unanimous decision win over Gabrielle Holloway. “Alpha” signed with the promotion after a seven-fight run with the UFC where she fought for the bantamweight title and earned victories over Miesha Tate, Amanda Nunes and Marion Reneau.
