    i really would enjoy a big strikeforce vs ufc ppv. that would be pretty huge doing strikeforce champs vs ufc champs, overeem vs brock, sobral vs machida, silva vs cung le, the winner of diaz vs heiron against the man st.pierre, melendez vs penn. you could throw a couple of extra fights in there like mir vs brett rogers, they could prob throw frank shamrock vs ortiz on the card, i love to see ortiz get beatings i dont care who does it. but anyhow what say you peoples i think this would be pretty cool if it came off

    Still not realsitic. For a co-promotion the UFC would have to have a partner that is as big as them, otherwise it's a no go. They're not about to let others piggyback off their hard work, regardless of whether we want it or not. Not to mention I'd favour the UFC guy in every one of those match-ups (the title fights that is).

    more realistic than m-1 wanting to co-promote. at least strikeforce or a dream or a sengoku could bring an entire stable of credible fighters to the table and make a huge ppv of it it even make it more mainstream with the television deal strikeforce has. either way strikeforce would have alot better chance of doing it than vadim fecalstain and m-1 global

    The co promotion idea is a non starter imo. The UFC will never do it, and tbh it is fair enough.

    Oh yeah definitely. But co-promotion with the UFC in general is very unlikely.

    Logos just don't matter. UFC and Strikeforce are just some paint on a canvas.

    Indeed he was, but it was relatively restrained by his standard

    UFC wouldn't and shouldn't do it. They would begin to sacrifice everything they worked years to build - a monopoly.

    UFC shouldnt do this. If you have 3 Aces you do not need to bow down to people who hold 1.
