Cris "Cyborg" Santos scored a TKO of Carano at the end of the first round of the first-ever women's main event on a major on MMA card in front of 13,524 at the HP Pavilion in San Jose.
In the fight to crown the women's 145-pound champion, Santos, of Curitiba, Brazil, came out guns blazing and threatened Carano early with a flurry of strikes and a leg lock following a takedown. "Cyborg" ended the match after she was able to get on top of Carano and landed around 12 consecutive blows before referee Josh Rosenthal stepped in and waved his arms to signal the fight was over with one second left in the scheduled five-minute round.
Santos (8-1) was a slight favorite to win and now becoms the first Strikeforce female 145-pound champion.
Carano suffered her first loss and fell to 7-1. So is a Playboy magazine spread now an option for Carano? If she's going to do it, now may be the time as another beating like that and her pretty face won't be so pretty anymore. See below.
