Gina Carano misses weight

By Lyman Hoyt May 31st, 2008

In what ended up being something of a non-story, Gina Carano failed to make weight for her EliteXC fight against Kaitlin Young on Friday night. She was required to maintain a weight of between 155-170 pounds for her role on “American Gladiators” and with taping for that show ending just three weeks ago she just couldn’t cut down to 140 1/2. She’s having her purse penalized by 12.5% with that amount going to her opponent, Kaitlin Young. Carano has had difficulty in her past couple of fights making weight as well.

Carano was the only fighter who failed to make weight for the event.
