Gina Carano Not Opposed to Continuing MMA Career

Film star and former MMA competitor Gina Carano has recently stated that she wouldn't be opposed to competing in MMA again.  Carano last fought in 2009 against Cris Cyborg for the Strikeforce Featherweight Championship.  The fight was Gina Carano's first and only loss and since then Carano has been focusing on her fim career.  There have been many rumors of Rousey's possible opponent being Gina Carano, but nothing has been confirmed.  In a recent interview, Carano stated that if the conditions were right, she would absolutely return to fight.

Carano is a pioneer for the sport of WMMA and it would be a privilege to watch her compete again.  Rousey says that she is willing to go up to 145 lbs for a fight with Carano.  Carano hinted at the fact that she may already have plans to compete again, but couldn't release any details.  Carano still has four fights left on her Zuffa contract after signing with Strikeforce to fight in 2009, so it makes the fight with Rousey very possible.  Rousey began her career at 145 lbs before capturing the Strikeforce Bantamweight Champion in 2012.

Gina Carano's Next Film

Retired MMA veteran Gina Carano might not be fighting any longer but she has still found a way to stay relevant in the spotlight of the media.  Outside of her fighting career, Carano spends time modeling as well as acting.  Her new stint will be starring the former female MMA in the coming thriller In the Blood.  She will be starring as a wife whose husband goes missing while they are on their Caribbean vacation. She will look to get her revenge on the men who she believes to have taken her husband/

The film will not be Carano's first acting gig as she has starred in a few other films before taking on this project.  Carano starred in films including Blood and Bone and Fast & Furious 6.  There is no official release date for the film.  At Comic-Con 2013 it was announced that Carano will be working on another film Avengelyne which is based on a popular comic book.
