They’re not making it easy for Lesnar’s comeback, are they? I wonder if this is Dana White’s “Everyone from Strikeforce is 10x worse than anyone from UFC” bravado. I predict that Overeem will crush Lesnar.

possibly...probably...

Dana wants to prove the still green coming off surgery Lesnar can take out the “World’s Best”.

While Lorenzo sit in the background steering this fight because he knows Lesnar is a false commodity and will lose his luster eventually. Might as well give it to Cain and Overeem, cuz these two are fuckin legit.

Turn to science with your questions young one.

I wonder why they are doing 5 rounds?

Is it for the strikeforce belt technically?

I think maybe because of the “all main card fights will be five rounds from now on” thing.

hmmm. Interesting.

I wonder if they’re going to disolve the HW Strikeforce title or if they’re just giving it to the winner of the SF GP

Who cares?

This is a sign that SF is on it’s last legs.
First Diaz, then REEM, soon Hendo, all of SF’s champs are jumping ship.
I hope the HW roster gets into the UFC ASAP.
Segei, Bigfoot, Barnett, Cormier, yes please.
