MONTREAL, QC – FundaFighter announced Monday that top UFC female bantamweight contender Cat Zingano is the latest fighter to join the growing MMA crowdfunding site.
“Alpha” Cat will make her UFC debut Saturday night at “The Ultimate Fighter 16 Finale” against Miesha Tate, with the winner earning a TUF 18 coaching slot opposite UFC female bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey, as well as a future shot at Rousey’s belt. The money raised by Zingano’s campaign will go towards offsetting the costs of both her current and next training camps.
In return for pledging to her campaign, Zingano will offer fans unique rewards, including personal phone conversations, one-on-one training sessions, and autographed clothing worn during this weekend’s event.
Zingano says she really likes the FundaFighter concept of crowd interaction and funding and says she’s looking forward to connecting with her fans through FAF and is looking for input on what other rewards her backers would like to see her add to her campaign in the coming weeks.
“I’m really excited to connect with the fans in a different way,” Zingano said Monday. “Please suggest other rewards you would like to see.”
Fans can check out Zingano’s campaign at www.fundafighter.com/fighters/cat-zingano and can make pledges by selecting the reward that they would like to reserve. The campaign, which will run for 60 days, will end June 7, 2013.
