Inside Elite Girl Fights!

Vicious hits... Violent kicks! In our continuing "Insider" reality series, we enter the intense world of cage fighting women on "CBS Elite-XC Saturday Night Fights," airing tomorrow on CBS.

"What's involved in it is pretty much anything goes," cage fighter Gina Carano -- who plays Crush on "American Gladiators" -- tells our own Victoria Recano. "You just try to beat the person till they submit."

This beautiful, single brunette is the face of a new sport that more women are venturing into -- mixed martial arts. But she treasures her feminine side too, as we go behind the scenes with her on a photo shoot for November's issue of Shape magazine.

"For sure, you gotta be female too," says Gina. ""I'm single and I don't know why. I'm just focused on a lot of different things, I guess. When you meet a guy, the question goes through their head whether you can beat them up or not, and I think that's an instant unattraction. It's like, if they can't take you I don't think they're interested."
