Does this mean she will be not fighting anymore though? I would imagine that the filming schedule can't be that bad and she'd still be able to train on the side. This just allows her to make a decent living....

its most likely she will not be allowed to fight. Its probably written into her contract. She gets hurt fighting and she can't perform as a Gladiator. |

This will likely have ZERO effect on her fighting status and contract with EliteXC. The American Gladiator show has been rushed into production to fill prime time TV timeslots that will be empty due to the writers strike currently hampering the television industry. Gina is not the primary gladiator as they have a bunch of bodybuilders and fitness champs as the other female gladiators. She will almost definitely be one of the smaller of the gladiators. The complete production for about 22 episodes will last 1 month maximum.
She'll still get her 2-3 fights a year.

Those outfits could make anyone attractive girl appear unsexy. There's just something about them that screams "tranny!".

Ha ha I showed those pictures to my co-workers and the first word I heard from them was tranny. The one guy even thought Gina looked like a dude though, good thing he is bigger than me or he would have got a backhand! |

LOL Too funny, and yes Gina is by far the hottest of the crew there. Like everyone else I seriously hope this doesnt cut into her fighting career.
C'mon EliteXC cough up the bucks to keep her in the ring.
