Gina Carano emotionally reveals 100 lb. weight loss ahead of Rousey fight: 'Never give up'
Gina Carano is ready for her fight on Saturday night against Ronda Rousey, with the former MMA fighter and Mandalorian star coming in at 141.4 pounds.
And apparently, it meant so much to her, as she revealed in a lengthy, emotional post on social media. She said she's lost 100 pounds to get to this point and that "it did not happen overnight."
"I was pre-diabetic, had trouble simply walking in September 2024 and have been on the path to recovery to turn myself back into an athlete since then," she wrote. "It was hard, SO damn hard.. there was so much to learn, too much to unpack here, ups, downs, plateaus, things I learned late I wish I learned earlier, trial by error but I did it."
"Believe there is hope," she added. "Never give up."
