Gina Carano in the WEC?
Bloody Elbow —
... more realistic. One wonders if the recent return of Randy Couture to the UFC fold figures into White's quickly evolving attitude toward Carano (and other women) fighting under the Zuffa banner, given Carano's close relationship with the Coutures?

Here’s what he said at Monday’s Q & A in Toronto :
“ Gina Carano is a star, and I think she’s ...
