Kim Couture on Gina Carano

Xtreme Couture is promoting Night Of Combat II in Las Vegas tomorrow night. There was a press conference yesterday and Steve Cofield of Yahoo Sports caught up with Kim Couture. Kim talked about Gina Carano being underpaid and about the weigh in fiasco. She said Gina's contract is an old one from her previous manager and that Jared Shaw is a pervert. She was at the weigh in and was in Gina's corner. Before you write off her comments, keep in mind that Gina trains at Xtreme Couture so she has a lot of business influence on Gina. Kim Couture may be a neophyte in the ring but she does understand the business of MMA. In other news, EliteXC has added Brett Rogers vs an opponent TBA to their Nov. 8 show and bumped Sarah Kaufman vs Kaitlin Young from the main card on Showtime. So the fight will happen but won't be televised. Here's the Kim Couture interview.

    Defshepard here, The more I listen to Kim, the more I like what she has to say. She come off very intelligent and thoughtful. Good interview and Major league props to her and what she had to say regarding Gina Carano. I am sorry to hear the Kaufman vs Young fight will not be televised. In Your words Frank "What a waste".
