10 NFL Players Gina Carano Could Beat Up

Gina Carano has put a beating on a lot of women in her fighting career. In kickboxing, Carano holds a record of 12-1-1 while in MMA, her record is 7-1-0.

She can punch; she can kick; she can knee in the clinch and take the fight to the ground at will. All this, and she has somehow stayed prettier than most women can hope to get with all the makeup in the world.

Being that she often trains with guys, we know she could handle the majority of average men in the world if she had to. But how about the players in the other proverbial "toughest sport"?

Since Gina will likely never face any of these football players, we'll have to use our imaginations. Here are 10 of them she could beat up.

Adam "Pac-Man" Bernard Jones

Being a cornerback, Pac-Man Jones has speed and good cardio.

But Gina would loosen him up with some kicks to the solar plexus and definitely get the jump on him with her punches.

Jones wouldn't even feel Gina's uppercut because he would be out cold.

Lawrence Phillips

Girlfriend beater, eh? Not with Gina around.

After throwing a few kicks to keep her distance, Gina would clinch Phillips and work his midsection with some knees. He'd go down after the first couple.

Ben Roethlisberger

Big Ben would take a bit for Gina to beat, but she would wear him out. He would probably try to overwhelm her, but if she stays out of his range for a bit, this fight wouldn't be all that tough.

Range would be a big issue, but Gina is an expert at staying at arm's length and pummeling her opponents with leg kicks to loosen their defense up. In the cage, this would be a TKO in round 2.

Darrion Scott

Defensive end Darrion Scott is another big guy. But what did we learn from TUF 10? Big football players suck at cardio in the cage.

Again, Gina would stay out of range by circling to Darrion's right, and while he would try to pull a Sumo and ram her into the ground, she would use his momentum against him.

Gina by rear naked choke.

Deon Anderson

Fullback Deon Anderson is tough, but is he tough enough to hang with Gina? Probably for about two or three minutes. But Gina can outlast that with no trouble.

Deon would probably go hard at it for that time, but when he realizes he can't hit Gina with a clean shot after she follows up with kicks to his inner legs, he would be in a heap of trouble.

Matt Jones

Matt Jones had a little run in with the law regarding cocaine possession. How would he handle a fight with Gina?

It depends. If he's coked up, the he might be a hassle for her. But she'd wear down his cardio and probably triangle choke him--if he's lucky.

Jones's reach would be the most troubling thing for Gina in this fight. Being that he's a big guy, she wouldn't exactly want to clinch him right off.

In this fight, Gina would take pot shots to loosen him up, and he would eventually exhaust himself after swinging for the fences.

This might be Gina's toughest fight, but she would have the edge with speedy strikes, although this wouldn't be a quick match by any means.

Bill Romanowski

We know that Bill Romanowski likes to kick. But violence on the field is difference than real violence.

Sure, Romanowski had refs there to split up the action and issue fines. But with no refs around, it's doubtful Romanowski would stand and strike with Gina.

She would KO him with a knee to the chin.

Quinn Ojinnaka

Facebook freak Quinn Ojinnaka is a big guy. At 6'5" and over 300 lbs, Ojinnaka would be a brute force to deal with. That is, if Gina decided to fight him force against force, which she wouldn't.

Like so many Sumo wrestlers in MMA, Ojinnaka would either become exhausted after the consistent demand of the fight, or he would miss Gina in an attempt to tackle her and lose control of his momentum.

Ojinnaka would be tough to choke, so Gina would wait until he takes himself down and she'd win this by arm bar or kimura.

He would probably try to use his power to get Gina to the ground, but she would exhaust him by staying out of his distance and sprawling if needed.

Gina would win by rear naked choke.

Plaxico Burress

Plaxico Burress is another guy Gina would have trouble with at first. However, as long as she could stay out of his range and tear up his legs, that would debilitate his speed advantage and he would be avoiding the takedown the rest of the fight.

However, Gina would get that takedown, but it wouldn't be easy. She would have to clinch him first, although if she successfully and systematically disabled his legs, she should be able to get some good knees in before taking him to the ground and choking him.

Michael Vick

Who wouldn't pay to see Gina pummel the dog torturer Michael Vick?

We know how this would end. Vick would try to do the old one-two and Gina would knee him in the clinch, take him down and stomp him into submission.

And without a ref, though, who says she has to stop?
