* - New Jersey Deputy Attorney General Nick Lembo said the Gina Carano-Kaitlin Young bout was scheduled to be contested at 140 pounds. Both fighters were aware that Carano would be over weight before the weigh-ins, and a percentage of Carano's purse was awarded to Young. Lembo was unsure of the amount but believed it to be 12 to 12.5 percent. I for one I'm disappointed by Carano not making weight she is a professional and she is acting like a new fighter who doesn't know the first thing about cutting weight. I wonder how Randy feels about one of his fighters again being over weight for a fight! What a shame she may end up hurting women's MMA....
