Why Gina?  Why did you give up the mount?

5 October 2009 • reblog: fuckyeahginacarano • Gina Carano Christiane Cyborg Santos Strikeforce

fuckyeahginacarano: I should probably just be creating an entirely new “Fuck Yeah” for ALL women’s MMA so I don’t consistently feel the need to post off topic news HERE… but hey. I’m kinda lazy. So here goes. As it was reported a few days ago that Cris Cyborg had sustained an unspecified injury, it has now been confirmed that she will no longer be a part of the November 7th event on CBS headlined by Fedor Emelianenko and Brett Rogers.  She was set to fight against Marloes Coenen. No word on whether or not there is a replacement fight lined up, but as fightlinker.com said, I’m not holding my breath. I’m officially bummed. I am both bummed about news of the injury AND in full support of a fuckyeahwomensmma.  You can’t do anything about the first half, but you CAN do the second!  Make it happen.  I encourage.

(via fuckyeahginacarano) I wish I had seen this fight so I’d know how this takedown finished.  That’s deep shot.

(via fuckyeahginacarano) You have to give Kobold credit.  She just kept coming, no matter how many hits she took.  She dropped a very-one-sided decision, but Carano just could not finish her. (Kobold’s record is 16-3 with one draw, tapping to 1 armbar and dropping 2 decisions).

He came into the locker room before one of my fights and said about two sentences and it screwed my head on straight. I was all wound up and he said, “You know why we do this?” And I looked at him like, “No, why am I doing this?” And he said, “Because we love it, right?” His presence and calmness took any anxiety I was feeling and turned it into passion. I was just ready to go since then.

(via fuckyeahginacarano) This is why I loved this fight.  It would be silly of me to deny that Gina did not have the posture of someone who was losing through most of the duration of the fight.  But we saw it in the way she held herself, not in the way she fought.  Because until she turtled up near the end of the round, she had flashes of brilliance, of someone who could change the pace, and turn the tide of the fight.  I fully believe that Carano CAN beat Cyborg, and I’d really like to see her in the cage again.
