Henry Cavill Girlfriend Gina Carano is Ronda Rousey's dream fight. The bantamweight defending champion publicly declares that a match with Carano is "something that she has wanted since the first time she laid eyes on the sport."

"My coach said from the start that Gina is the worst style matchup for me," Rousey said in a recent interview as reported by the Cagewriter.

"I'm not just saying that. I don't have to worry about fighters outmuscling or overwhelming me or catching me on the mat. The only thing I have to worry about is the one-punch knockout. And out of all of the women in MMA, Gina has the best feel for distance and timing. That's not something you lose because you made a couple of movies. You'll always have that. And she was the first girl I ever saw that had a one-punch standing knockout," she added.

Meanwhile, Randy Couture who helped train Carano in the past, thinks that the idea of having an immediate title bout is "fair or prudent for the former Strikeforce and EliteXC standout" according to MMA Fighting site.

"I think it's silly. It'd be silly for Gina," Couture argued. "I think Gina has way more to lose there than she has to gain in stepping right in to a title fight after being off and off the mats in training environment for the last five years. And frankly, I think she's done an amazing job with her movie career," he continued. "I don't know why she would want to do that. I think if they give her a chance to really get her feet back under her and get back up to technical speed where she was, it would be a very interesting fight."

Reportedly earlier this year, Carano expressed her intentions for returning to the fight game when she appeared on The Arsenio Hall Show.
