It’s finally going down. The premier womens MMA fight that everyone has been asking for and waiting for. Gina “Conviction” Carano (7-0) will finally be taking on Cristiane “Cyborg” Santos (7-1), for Strikeforce’s first ever womens 145 lb world title. This Strikeforce fight will take place on August 15th at the HP Pavillion in San Jose California. Not only is this fight highly anticipated, but one woman will walk away with a title as the best female mixed martial arts fighter in the world. It’s all on the line this time and I guarantee that neither of these women are taking it lightly.
Gina Carano Quote via MMA Junkie:
“I’ve wanted this fight with Cyborg for a long time and so have the fans, so it was important to me that it happen in my first fight back,” Carano stated. “I’ve been training hard the last few months and come August, I will be in the best shape of my life. This fight will absolutely deliver on all the hype.”
I can’t wait to see this go down. These our some powerful and skilled women who will be trying to impose their will on one another. There is no doubt it will action packed.
