Gina Carano is one of the fastest rising new stars of female MMA. Over the past few months she’s gone from being relatively unknown in our sport to becoming one of the figureheads of the female MMA movement.

After becoming the first woman, along with Leiticia Pestova, to be part of the first ever NSAC-sanctioned female fight, Carano followed it up a few months later by becoming the first woman to fight and win a MMA fight for the Strikeforce promotion when she defeated Elaina Maxwell in December.

Now Gina steps back into the spotlight in this week’s episode of “Warrior Nation”, debuting on MSNBC January 23rd, as they chronicle her and Elaina Maxwell’s journey to their Strikeforce showdown.

“I haven’t gotten to see it yet, so I don’t know what to expect, but I know that I was myself throughout the whole taping,” said Gina Carano of her episode of “Warrior Nation.”
