Steve Cofield put up part two of his interview with Gina Carano today:
It is almost certain that Carano’s next fight will be for Strikeforce, I assume the negotiations have more to do with how many fights will be on the contract. However, it’s still pretty clear she wants to fight on a UFC. She mentioned a meeting with Dana and Lorenzo, and said that was a possibility.
From what I understand, there are two competing schools of thought within the UFC on how to integrate Gina and women. One school is in favor of having a full women’s division in WEC, and putting Gina Carano’s fights, championship or not, on UFC PPV. The other school argues there aren’t enough women for a good division, and they should just do two or three Gina fights a year as special attractions outside of any division. The obvious middle ground is to start with the latter and work toward the former.
I expect that Carano will fight on CBS this summer against Cyborg. From there, it’s all up in the air.
