Ronda Rousey and Cat Zingano In a fight that some had expected to be her toughest to date, UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey needed just 14 seconds to retain her title on Saturday night at “UFC 184: Rousey vs. Zingano” in Los Angeles. Rousey finished top contender Cat Zingano with a straight armbar and set a record for the fastest finish in UFC championship history. The title fight between Rousey (11-0 MMA, 5-0 UFC) and Zingano (9-1 MMA, 2-1 UFC) was initially planned for UFC 168 in December 2013, but Zingano was forced to withdraw from both the bout and her position as a coach on “The Ultimate Fighter 18” due to injury. Fast-forward 14 months, and the top-ranked bantamweights finally met inside the octagon this past weekend. Zingano dashed forward after the opening bell and she leapt at Rousey with a flying knee.
