http://www.mmaweekly.com/absolutenm/templates/dailynews.asp?articleid=10314&zoneid=3 Its not confirmed... (but) on that fight card, youll most likely see Fedor fighting Fabricio (Werdum), he revealed. Its not guaranteed, but you will see Dan Henderson fighting on that card, and Gina Carano, well invite her if shes ready. Hendersons opponent hasnt been finalized yet either, but he is expected to challenge current middleweight champion Jake Shields under the watchful eye of CBS. Pressed about heavyweight champion Alistair Overeem, the CEO said, Were probably gonna invite Alistair to fight on the CBS card, dispelling initial plans for an earlier return.
Awsome. Wedum is a great fighter. His Jiu Jitsu is absolutly top notch. Fedor will KO him though imo.
Undereem should be stripped of his title. Him and that goofy manager do nothing but talk crap about defeating Fedor but expect Strikeforce and Fedor to wait around for him and make accomodations for him, everything is about him when FEDOR is the draw, not Undereem. They are Dutch versions of David Gaye!!!
Well , logically....it should've been Werdum vs Overeem. But since Overeem seems more preocupied by K1 than defending his belt...anyway... Fedor vs werdum should be great , i'm expecting this fight to go on the ground. But i don't think we're going to see a repeat of nog vs fed. Werdum doesn't have the chin for it , and he's probably gonna offer a different style with his bjj....let's not forget that he's a multiple adcc champion too. Fedor has never been submited in his career , but , there's a first time for everything...(or not lol )...i personally don't think werdum will submit fedor...But he needs to be very careful because werdum can easily submit even from his back.
One things forsure,Fedor wont tap. I think when randleman dumped him on his head to no effect proved Fed's toughness.. Its kind of frustrating as there genuinely aint much out there that could pose a threat to Fedor...
tough fight this werdum is a class operator and a big ****er too,he's beat up on gonzaga,brandon vera,alex emelianenko,overeem etc... on paper its fedors,but who knows....
Werdum is an excellent fighter but Strikeforce are making the wrong move. It is in their best interest to make Fedor Overeem. Fedor needs to hold the belt. Champs are the face of your organisation. Fedor is the face but with no belt. Mousasi is the face but his last fight wasn't a title fight. Strikeforce need to put their eggs in the Mousasi and Fedor baskets cos they are STRONG champs. If Henderson beats Shields, they need to do the same there cos Henderson is another strong fighter and he deserved his rematch against Silva.
Just watched the interview and haven't put 2 and 2 together until now but that is another sick card Fedor vs Werdum Shields vs Henderson Gina vs TBA Overeem vs TBA That is April but in January they are talking about Walker, Lashley, Thomson wants to be on that card, Cyborg etc I need Strikeforce. I love UFC but I sometimes got withdrawal symptons. I need fights every week in boxing and MMA.
