"Carano last fought in 2009 and subsequently went on to build a career in Hollywood. Carano made headlines after she was released by Lucasfilm in 2021 following controversial comments. Carano is now back in training at Syndicate MMA under coach John Wood. Wood says Carano got back in shape over the last few months and is training with professional fighters now. While Wood doesn't want to jump the gun, he isn't shutting down the idea of Carano returning to combat sports."
""She's here every day, she's back in the mix," Wood told Home of Fight. "She's back training every day. We spent first couple of months getting back in shape, she's jumped in now, working with the pros. So who knows? I'm not at will to say what could or could not happen there... This coming back and training lit a fire under her ass. I think there are some things that are potentially on the table and that might be explored.""
