This Strikeforce card Saturday night is fucking stacked

Lawler vs Shields will be a war
Scott Smith vs Nick Diaz will be a war
Andrei Arlovski vs Bret Rogers will be a slugfest
Phil Baroni vs Joe Riggs will be exciting


Great shit, cant wait

I feel sick.

I feel sick.

Yep. When I saw Fedor in that triangle, it almost felt like watching someone close to me IRL get pummelled Just such an unreal feeling to actually see Fedor at a point when he really is about to lose, and there's no way out. But I do hope he still has some fight left in him & won't retire very soon. The post-fight comments do indicate he's still going to be around for a while yet...

He's got one fight in his contract with Strikeforce. Following logic Werdum should fight Overeem, but that's not really how SF works I guess.

They probably have too much invested in Fedor and get strong-handed by M1 to make the rematch with Werdum. Poor Reem, no one wants to fight him, and all this would of course make the SF belts look like a fucking joke. ffs last time Reem fought a guy who had just lost.

Ive never seen Fedor look that sloppy technique wise.. he basically applied the triangle to himself.

how about this weekend? Brock vs Carwin! WHO YA GOT?

cannot wait.
