Gina Carano was forced to pull out of the fight against Sarah D’Alelio due to not getting medical clearance from her doctors. There is no word yet on the reason for the doctor’s decision. She also is not allowed to train until she get medical clearance.
Scott Coker stated today
Following a medical examination yesterday afternoon, Gina Carano’s medical clearance was revoked by her doctor and consequently she will not be able to fight on June 18. The timetable for Gina’s return will be determined after further tests are conducted this week.
Gina Carano said in a statement to the press
I’m seriously disappointed not to be fighting on June 18. I’d like to thank Greg Jackson and Team Jackson for such an amazing camp. I hope this is only a brief setback
The next possible date for Gina’s return is July 30st which is the PPV event superfight between Fedor vs Dan Henderson.

Gina Carano Twitter update: “God Bless The Troops”
Tweet
.
Gina Carano recently tweeted a link to a beautiful video montage of U.S Soldiers coming home to their loved ones along with the lone message of “God Bless The Troops ;)” Recall the fighter supporting The USO in her last fight by promoting their logo. A prime sponsorship ad could’ve been used, but instead this warrior opted to support our nation’s warriors, The U.S Service Men & Women. Several Carano fans have been inspired by her to fight, but all can help with the biggest fight.

At first, Tatum didn’t like the idea of being in a female (led) action movie.
“I said (to my wife) find a girl who could whoop up on me…and they did. She’s great. For somebody that’s never acted before, she seemed like she had. She worked really hard. (click here for video interview including notes on Haywire)
