Gina Carano's nude weigh-in was wrong, says Kim Couture
As if mixed martial arts doesn't have enough negative attention to deal with because of the Kimbo Slice-Seth Petruzelli fight controversy, now Kim Couture is critical of how the organization handled the weigh-in of popular women's fighter Gina Carano (picture above).
Couture, wife of former Ultimate Fighting Championship heavyweight king Randy Couture, says Elite XC executive Jared Shaw "peeked" at Carano, who stepped nude on the scale flocked by towels.
Couture said she was forced to weigh in nude herself once in Portland, Ore., but did so in the presence of one female representative of a commission -- not the crowd Carano weighed in before.
In this YouTube video, Couture also slams Elite XC for paying Carano only $25,000.
