MMAFanhouse has an exclusive interview with Gina:
So it’s not 100 percent that you’ll sign the contract?
Anything is possible, we’ve been going back and forth, my lawyers and their lawyers, but I’m very positive about the whole thing.
Let’s talk about some other issues. Should women fight five-minute rounds?
Yes. In MMA, you can go to the ground, or you can be against the fence for a minute, and three minutes isn’t enough, so we should fight five-minute rounds. You see more skill and five-minute rounds and it would be good for female fighters to showcase their talents. I know that in Nevada it doesn’t matter men or women, you fight five-minute rounds and I’ve fought two of those. In California it’s two- or three-minute rounds. But it would be nice if it was five-minute rounds.
Do you expect to fight Cyborg in a five-round title fight?
I couldn’t answer that. It would be nice if it was for a title, and that’s what title fights are, five rounds.
Are there any fighters in particular you look at and try to emulate? Fighters you’ve watched and thought you want to learn from their techniques?
I think I’d want to be a mixture of Randy Couture mentality and Anderson Silva technique. And then I just really like the guys at my gym, like Tyson Griffin, Gray Maynard, Mike Pyle, Jay Hieron. Those are four people I get to watch every day. And also Nick Diaz because I think you have to have that warrior mentality that he has.
