After deciding to return to action at UFC 200 after a 16-month exile, Cat Zingano looks set to make another big decision in her mixed martial arts career as she weighs up a possible full-time move to train at Alliance MMA.
Zingano currently resides in Denver, Colorado, however, she is currently mulling over a possible relocation to San Diego, California to work with the team at Alliance MMA throughout the year.
The UFC bantamweight is said to have first began contemplating the move after her UFC 200 return fight against Juliana Pena. That evening, Zingano dropped a unanimous decision to Pena, however, prior to the fight, she had trained for the first time at the Alliance Training Center in Chula Vista, California and thoroughly enjoyed the training environment.

Should Zingano make the move a permanent one, she will likely be welcomed by Alliance open arms. Speaking to MMAFighting.com ahead of her UFC 200 fight, Eric Del Fierro, Alliance's head coach was overjoyed to have her at the training center.
"We're excited to have her," Del Fierro said ahead of UFC 200. "She came out a few times before and just trained during her visit. She is definitely an incredible athlete, and I look forward to working with her."
Earlier this week, Zingano posted a photo on her Instagram account saying she was still weighing up her options.
