Dana White calls Gina Carano ‘the hardest human being we've ever dealt with’

UFC President Dana White referred to Gina Carano as "the hardest human being we've ever dealt with" during a media conference in Las Vegas.

It seemed the longer the talks between Carano and UFC is taking place, the lesser the possibility of her getting inside the octagon.

According to White via FOX Sports "I didn't see it coming. I don't know, we'll see how these things play out. Just incredibly difficult. We've dealt with (Brock) Lesnar, Tito (Ortiz), Chuck (Liddell) was f--king king of the world, Ronda Rousey, we've pretty much done deals with everyone on Earth and she is the hardest f--king athlete we have ever dealt with."

He added "The problem is she allows herself to be handled by these Hollywood f--king idiots. It's absolutely crazy. We've had all the biggest superstars in the world. You're talking about a girl who hasn't fought in a while. Any time you deal with anyone in f--king Hollywood it's a joke. It's literally a joke, it's comical. You feel like you're in a Saturday Night Live skit. This can't be f--king real. In dealing with her people, I don't know if it can be done"

Carano is recently scheduled for two movies before the end of the year. Because of this, the likelihood of seeing Carano fighting again is not close.

Carano's manager, Scott Karp, told MMA Fighting's Ariel Helwani that the 32-year-old Carano (7-1), who hasn't fought in five years, will be filming a movie called "Bus 657," which features Robert DeNiro, in October, and film a second movie in December.

White said "I'm going to tell you what Lorenzo (Fertitta) said to me -- he said whatever you do, if you want this fight to happen, do not talk to her manager. That's what Lorenzo said to me. He said 'you will f--king go crazy, you will lose your mother---ing mind. If you want this to happen, please don't call this guy'. A few days ago Lorenzo was like 'it's probably time for you to call this guy'. That's how bad it's been. I'll leave it at that."
