Scott Coker Discusses Women’s MMA & Gina Carano

Strikeforce CEO, Scott Coker spoke with MMARising.com, about remaining focused on developing women’s MMA. There’s also been a lot of speculation as to whether or not Gina will be returning to the cage, so I’ve quoted a segment that deals with this:

On a final note, Coker addressed the future of women’s MMA postergirl Gina Carano, who is currently filming a movie and is said to be involved in a second big-budget film this year. “[Carano] still has a home here with Strikeforce and we look forward to her return,” said Coker, who stated that he would reach out to Carano when she had returned home and taken some time off after filming had wrapped. “Cung [Le] waited about 18 months before he came back, so let [Carano] go be a movie star for now.”

Contrary to reports that have suggested otherwise, Carano’s contract is a multi-fight, multi-year deal that extends well beyond what some have speculated. Coker looks forward to Carano’s return and believes that she will be part of the company’s bright future.

It’s a great interview, and worth the read, so check it out here:
