This paper concerns traveling wave solutions for a two species competition-diffusion model with the Lotka-Volterra type interaction. We assume that the corresponding kinetic system has only one stable steady state that one of species is existing and the other is extinct, and that the rate $\epsilon_{2}$ of diffusion coefficients of the former species over the latter is small enough. By singular perturbations, we prove the existence of traveling waves for each $c \ge c(\epsilon)$ and discuss the minimal wave speed.
