Strikeforce but together a great card of fights. But, there was one thing that was missing. A “Hype Man” to sell the next card. A Don King or Dana White, someone that could have told the world that they just witness the “greatest card of fighters ever assembled”. Someone that could have sold the Fedor vs. the champion Alistair Overeem in January. Someone that could have told the world that in the 60’s and 70’s the world had Muhammad Ali as the baddest man on the planet. But today, we have Fedor Emelianenko as truly the greatest MMA fight of all-times and he is fighting for Strikeforce. You can search the world from Minnesota to China and not find a better fight in the world. Alistair Overeem should have been at ringside with a couple of closeup shots of his mug. He should have entered the ring after the fight taking trash about the fact that he is the Champion and not Fedor. “He would have knocked out both of these guys tonight.” Another reason you need a “Hype Man” is because Fedor doesn’t speak english. So you need someone to let the world know you are witnessing history with ever fight. With the next card that’s on Dec. 19, I would have started the debate that Cung Le is the greatest 185 lb. fighter in the world. He would knockout any American or Brazilian in the world. There is not another man in the world that has ever defeated him. Strikeforce is where you will see the ULTIMATE CHAMPIONS!

I wish they would put together Nick Diaz vs Shinya Aoki for the main event.

Have they found a can yet for Mo?
I bet he can’t wait to beat up a can and talk about how great he is.
