Gina Carano Says She Warned Dana White That Holly Holm Was Legit

– Gina Carano recently spoke with foxsports.com, noting that she told Dana White that Holly Holm was a legit fighter prior to her UFC signing. Here is what she had to say…

I did train with Holly a little in New Mexico. I remember talking to Dana White last year sometime in his office, he had the five top contenders in each weight class written on his office windows — male and female — and there were a couple names I couldn’t for the life of me figure out, why were not written down. Holly is the only one I mentioned because I knew they were in talks of negotiating with her and after seeing how talented she was and the most incredible work ethic…

I felt it was important to mention she is legit and should be up there. He laughed and blew it off mentioning something about her ground game but then again he did sign her not long after that so I think he knew. She seems like she deserved that in her life and career.”
