Undefeated Liz 'Girl-Rilla' Carmouche has the potential to become one of female MMA's fastest rising stars. The 25-year-old of Lebanese descent has put a string of impressive victories together in her short career and adds much needed depth to Strikeforce's 135lbs female division. Carmouche spent seven years in the Unites States Marine Core before beginning her professional MMA career in 2010, winning all five of her fights. Her most notable win was over former Strikeforce No. 1 title contender Jan Finney at 'ShoMMA 12: Wilcox vs. Ribero' in November of 2010.
Carmouche fights for Team Hurricane Awesome at Undisputed Fitness and Training in San Diego California with Manolo Hernandez and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu world champion. Baret Yoshida.
