Behind the Hype: Carano vs. Cyborg
Scott Smith, Frank Shamrock, and Mauro Ranallo comment on highlights from both women’s careers.

Glenn Carano has traveled the world to see his middle daughter compete, all the way from Thailand to Mississippi to Newark. Still, his recollection of that night near San Jose, Calif., remains murky. He prefers it that way.
Gina Carano, America’s postmodern sweetheart, the Maxim hottie who could submit you in any variety of ways, was 12-1-1 as a Muay Thai fighter, and now 7-0 as a professional mixed martial artist. That night — a glorified smoker somewhere in the Bay Area, her father recalls — was her only loss.
