Haywire's Gina Carano Tells Conan O'Brien How MMA Is Like Sex

Former Strikeforce women's 145lb champion Gina Carano was on Conan O'Brien last week to promote her new movie Haywire. Gina was a somewhat hesitant interview, telling O'Brien she'd "rather get punched in the face" than do an interview.
But she did open up when he reminded her of a previous statement she'd made comparing cage fighting to having sex. Here's the exchange:
Conan O'Brien:"I want to know why that's true, in great detail."
Gina Carano: "If you think about it, it's a very real interaction between two human beings, and it's like an energy. You have a real energy really, and I have an energy, an energy that nobody else is going to share."
Carano also told O'Brien that her original inspiration for getting into MMA happened when she was "sitting around drinking 40's with a boyfriend" and that at her first visit to a Muay Thai gym a Thai trainer walked up to her and said "oooh baby, you too chubby."
Full video after the jump.

fanpost about how they have all lost by RNC at one point in time. Overblown by the fact that Rumble and Melvin just both lost by RNC recently.

Hey
Can you please explain to me what ‘Blackzilians’ means? The one definition I could find is that a blackzilian is a black Brazilian. I’m guessing that’s not it, considering Melvin is seemingly referred to as a blackzilian.

Rashad's nickname for that camp, Imperial Athletics
They’re almost all black and brazilian dudes, hence the name.

This is, like, the second time I see her get uncomfortable and blurt sex references.
Gotta love a girl with a mind like that.

She fought Cyborg. Nothing gay about that.

Kind of a re-tread of her interview with Craig Ferguson.

Share for share, share alike, you'll get struck each time I strike.
Exactly. Do people still think anything said in these types of shows is thought up on the spot? Everything that is talked about is gone over before the show, and of course they are going to go about it as if it wasn’t. It’s called television. Plus this is something she’s said, basically word for word, multiple times in the past. I don’t even understand how this is “news”. Articles like this are what’s wrong with MMA media.

really?
articles about a prominent MMA star being interviewed on a massively popular nationally syndicated late night show?
I think it’s great for MMA media to report on things like this. Not like it isn’t important or anything…
"If Tyson Griffin was a girl, I would say he has a badonkadonk." Joe Rogan
what you mean the same way comedians, sports players and basically everyone else does
except tracy morgan tracy always taps into mars when he opens his mouth. his leno, conan, and craig interviews were all different
I just noticed
that the picture of Conan looks like he’s motor-boating invisible Gina bewbies.

10 ways mma is like sex
1 – goes to the ground 80% of the time
2 – viewable on PPV
3 – always use protection!
4 – typically starts with nu-metal and gladiators
5 – not doing well? try a different weight class.
6 – $5 at Buffalo Wild Wings
7 – staph infections
8 – DQ for strikes to the back of the head
9 – active hips
10 – “UNBELIEVABLE!” “IT’S AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALL OVER!”
This is an oule.

12. you can’t compete if your stamina is only good for 5 minutes
