Chris Conley Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 (edited) Any of you watch the Elite XC on CBS last night? The best fight of the night was the women. Both those gals were tuff. I never thought that I would be rooting for a gal but I am. Not bad looking either. gina.bmp ETA - Respect meaning right up there with Calamity Jane. Chris C.

dfwmiket Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Some of the fights weren't bad, but they will have to step it up to compete with the UFC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
03k64 Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Gina's standup looked really good, but I think she may be in trouble when she fights Cyborg. The fights were OK but the announcers were horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Conley Posted October 6, 2008 Author Share Posted October 6, 2008 I agree with all. Cyborg will be tuff for her. Chris C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokshwn Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 No disrespect but Gina needs to make a decision whether she wants to be a fighter or follow in Anna Kournikova's footsteps. As mentioned she has had difficulty making weight in her recent fights and has looked way out of condition mostly due to her activities not associated with the ring.

Chris Conley Posted October 6, 2008 Author Share Posted October 6, 2008 I would have to say that Elite XC is a joke compared to the UFC and WEC. I just hope she does well. She got some mean ass kicks. Chris C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M118LR Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 I also thought she did alright. I am sure you will have her hands full with Cyborg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddy_fuentes Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Gina is a cutie, but if she fight that girl from Brazile she won't be too cute anymore. (not sure who Cyborg is....girl from Brazile?) Buddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buddy_fuentes Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 I think that is the "girl" I'm talking about. I saw her fight on Spike TV and she could take on many of the men fighters in her weight class. Gina would be in trouble as I see it. Thanks for the video.

She would make so much more money and have a longer career at modeling than MMA. Men hell we just like to beat the hell out of each other and who cares what we look like right...

Sandro Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 I was surprise how good she is. I wonder how much they make per fight. My wife said with her assets would cost a lot to reconstruct any damage to her face. So I wonder if she makes enough... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Gwinn Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 My guess? At the moment she probably makes very little on the fight. Endorsements? Probably better, but there are only a handful of guys getting rich in MMA, and they fight for the UFC. For those of you suggesting she should be modeling, think it through for a minute: why are people looking at pictures of her? Why are people so amazed at her looks? Because she's also a mixed martial artist. She's a fighter. She seems happy with that. She should fight. Similarly, I doubt Cyborg cares what any of us think of her looks.
