Carina Damm, a Brazilian who is one of the world's most famous female mixed martial arts fighters, has tested positive for steroids.

Damm, who has been nicknamed "Beauty But The Beast" and "MMA Barbie," was found to have a nandralone count of 37.9 nanograms per milliliter -- or nearly 20 times the permissible threshold of 2 ng/ml -- after her 11-second knockout win over Lashonda Knox on April 3 in Los Angeles.

Is America Ready For Female MMA?


Is America Ready For Female MMA?

Ready or not, here it comes. Thanks to Elite XC, on May 31st, Gina Carano will face off with Kaitlin Young in a televised bout.

Yes, Gina Carano is on American Gladiators under the name "Crush". Before American Gladiators, Carano was a Muay Thai fighter, and a good one as well.

She now trains with Xtreme Couture in Las Vegas. If there ever was a good canidate for female MMA spokeswoman, Carano would be it. Intelligent, articulate, down to earth, and not too hard on the eyes. Okay, so she is super hot, we all know it.
