Daniel Cormier knocks out Antonio Silva (gif) in the semifinals of the Strikeforce heavyweight grand prix tournament last night (Sept. 10) at the U.S. Bank Arena in Cincinnati, Ohio. Is he the new favorite to win it all?

Damn
I always thought Bigfoot had a decent chin
Conan : You are known as a striker. Is that correct? Tell me what that means.

Yes. Cormier to win it alllllll

That'd be great but since UFC owns SF it would be better if he wins, then he comes over to the UFC
more marketability.

that's what i'd think. but if that was the case they'd have left reem in for this tourny
is strikeforce actually making money now?

Less negotiation power
By taking Overeem out of the Tourny in what most believed Overeem would have won, Overeem would had given the UFC a more difficult time in getting a superfight in the UFC, him being both Strikeforce champ and Tourny winner along with being long time undefeated.
Nah, you could say that Cormier won a tourney
with the likes of Fedor, Bigfoot, Reem, etc.

Seriously?
They are gonna make way more money by putting him against Brock on PPV and the subsequent exposure for Reem by facing the highest profile fighter the UFC has. Duh!
Because Reems last fight in the tourny was such an exciting bout.
I think they pulled him out early because they were worried he wouldn’t have any marketability against the top the UFC has to offer if he put on another crappy performance.
You mind your own damn business.
by jestermarcus on Sep 11, 2011 3:00 AM EDT via mobile up reply actions
undoubtedly reem v brock is going to make them more money than the tourny ever would
but at the time he got pulled there was a “what the hell, they killed the tourny” moment, and it did. which may have looked like them shooting themselves in the foot
so the big “maybe” of them dropping the hammer on this whole tourny for some “big announcments” doesn’t sound all that crazy to me. cormier could be very marketable, if he loses to barnett he loses a lot of steam. barnet is as saleable as he’s ever been, if he loses to cormier then he’s another washed up pride guy. better to snaffle them and have them lose on ppv for real money

I wonder if the UFC will take the risk of Cormier losing to Barnett
Not a clear cut fight imo regardless of last night but I favour Cormier slightly at the moment.
good question!
i had Barnett from the start but Cormier looked superb last night.What are the UFC gonna do with Barnett if he wins? And taking Cormier in off a loss will lose some of his dazzle.Are the UFC spiteful enough to just end thee tourney now?I dont think so but we will see
"ever heard of a tune up? tee hee hee hee
"ah hee hee hee ever heard of a ritual killing? tee hee hee hee"
"i dont get it"
"you gnaw on her face in public like that again and you'll be one tee hee hee hee"
Yeah Cormier is a bad match up for Barnett
Barnetts hands standing have never really been dangerous, I think Bigfoot had much more dangerous hands than Barnett. But Barnett has that Sonnen like style were he throws strikes to set up his takedowns and if he can catch Cormier off balance he is one of the few guys I can see get Cormier to his back.
Interesting fight for sure as I had Barnett to win from the start but Cormier has me second guessing myself
"I felt like I was getting raped by Freddy Mercury"-Tank on losing to Dan Severn
same here
DC was ace last night,his hands looked great but due to the experienced head of Barnett i just give him the edge.
"ever heard of a tune up? tee hee hee hee
"ah hee hee hee ever heard of a ritual killing? tee hee hee hee"
"i dont get it"
"you gnaw on her face in public like that again and you'll be one tee hee hee hee"
It is still an easy sell for Cormier if he loses because how new he is to the sport.
Not hard to just to come up with the fact that he is still developing and still a great talent.

That is tough. Uncle Dana has been forgiving before in the past. I think they would take him in and give him a terrible match up styalistically for him.
If he wins then that is more money for them in the future and if he loses Dana can put his little smile on Twitter and say told ya so. Win-Win. Unless he wins and cheats, that would suck for them.

How will that humiliate Coker?
Coker’s an employee of Zuffa now, he’s just a figurehead and he knows this, it just has been expressed this way because Zuffa has a plan for Strikeforce that they haven’t revealed to the public yet.
Cormier did what fedor wanted to do to Silva
Cormier I luv that guy…
"Did you know that if you mix equal parts

the thought that crossed my mind tonight was
brazilians invented this sport to show off thier art and less then two decades later it has been taken over by american wrestlers (of all kinds) who will dominate this sport today, tommorow and beyond.
that must sting for current and aspiring martial artists who will for the forseeable future always be at a disadvantage to american wrestlers who develop thier skills to average or better than average in other diciplines. and for those who are better than average (cain, jones) thier opponents are f**ked
american wrestlers have basically run european fighters back to where ever the hell they came from with thier tails between thier legs scramling to find a way to even stay competitive
dos santos is bad man but i garuntee you he is nervous of getting embarresed,
Q Jackson is ganna come out aggressive as all hell and swing with everything hes got hoping to land, knowing hes about to get schooled by a 23 y old

I think this is a bit of an over-reaction
Butm my fellow Albanian friend, I can definitely see what you mean. Wrestlers almost always seem to possess either freak strength, freak conditioning, or both. Cormier and King Mo demonstrated that tonight. When I saw Mo hanging that left hand down, and how loose he looked, his hands just seemed so lethal. My friends and I were just waiting for him to knock out Roger, once he got Roger on his side, all it took was one punch to clean his clock. He was looking for that behind the ear shot and man was it beautiful. The thing is, nothing is certain in a fight and this is especially true in MMA. Upsets happen all the time and some people just don’t stack up well against others. There’s no end all, be all solution to fights. A fight’s a fight and anything can happen.
Meh...the difference is in the arena and rules
…the cage benefits wrestlers…the ring benefits strikers, especially when ground kicks and stomps are legal
cool, whats up shqiptar
we all saw what sonnen who is not good at much but great at you know what and he made a silva his bitch
as sool as aldo faces an average fighter with great wrestling he will be crying uncle along with all the other fighters with weak wrestling out there
and dos santos is ganna get smoked
I don't think it's always so cut and dry...
Okami is a good wrestler and Silva destroyed him. I was really hoping Sonnen would win the fight because he talked so much trash, but Silva still beat him. Plus, Silva did have a rib injury going into that fight and he still managed to pull out a W. I do think Wrestlers have a natural advantage in a cage, but lots of fighters are able to negate that advantage with great striking and quick Sprawls. I think what gives wrestlers a good advantage over more “traditionally” trained martial artists is that wrestlers focus HEAVILY on conditioning. They’re usually faster and stronger, and wrestlers usually embody the “win at any cost” attitude. There are exceptions to this rule, but we see it a lot. When King Mo was getting rocked by Fejiao, he kept trying to get that single leg, Lesnar staying as active as he could while getting smashed in the face by Carwin, Velasquez recovering after getting rocked no less than 3 times in the Cheick Kongo bout. But then, we have exceptions as well. Junior Do Santos put a clinic on Carwin, Fejiao put a hurt on King Mo (I think Mo will win a rematch though and always root for him), Anderson Silva beat Olympic Wrestller Dan Henderson, and I am sure there are other examples. I do think that Star is right about that, the cage does favor wrestlers, but Dia does have a point. I don’t think it’s so cut and dry as wrestlers will always prevail, however. I’m good though bro, it’s cool to see an Albanian in these parts.
If you watched tonight
They explained that Mo had no ACL in his knee going into the fight. His body had absorbed the cadaver ACL he had put in after the Kawamura fight.
Gimme 1 round!

Also about Dos Santos vs Velasquez...
I don’t think Junior’s going to necessarily get smoked because he won’t be able to stop the takedown, I just think Velasquez is better at mixing up stuff than Dos Santos. Junior is usually going into his bouts as a straight up boxer. Cain won’t do that, Cain combos in punches and kicks and then transitions into Takedowns. When a fighter is transparent in their attacks, that’s when they lose. I knew Fedor was going to lose against Bigfoot when I saw him swinging for the fences and not trying any other techniques. When I saw him doing the same against Henderson, I got a sick feeling in my stomach. As for Aldo fighting a good wrestler, I kind of agree. The 145 and 135 divisions are still very new to most fans and we haven’t seen enough of the fighters to gauge how good they are. I don’t think anyone expected Roop to put a beating on Grispi, but it happened.

Wrestling has taken its tole on Judo as well. That is a major factor why last year they changed rules where you basically cannot shoot in on guys anymore becuase wreslters were going to Judo comps and cleaning house.
I say, good for them. Don’t change the rules, just get better you cry babies.

So much for the Fedor nuthuggers who claimed the only reason Bigfoot beat him was because of his size advantage
Cormier and Fedor are about the same size and this was a slaughter fest
I don't really need a sig anymore..cause gyverbob follows me around and replies faster than my sig can display..
What? Didn't Fedor weigh in the 230s for his fight with Silva
…and Cormier weighed like 247lbs for this fight….maaaaaan, I hate me some fibbers…..and right now you’re fibbing!
Stfu clown he aint weighed 218 since 8th grade
I don't really need a sig anymore..cause gyverbob follows me around and replies faster than my sig can display..
Bruh, maybe you're mistaken for when he fought Hendo (he weighed in at his lowest for that fight, but he still weighed in the 220s)
….I’m sorry to say, but you’re slipping
Fedor weighed 230 against Silva
Dude Fedor weighed 230…Silva weighed 260…that’s a 30 pound difference between Silva and Fedor…for their fight..
http://mmaweekly.com/strikeforce-fedor-vs-silva-weigh-in-results
so how the hell could he be 25 pound difference between Cormier and Fedor tonght, if the difference between Fedor and Silva was only 30 pounds? The math doesn’t add up scrub
I don't really need a sig anymore..cause gyverbob follows me around and replies faster than my sig can display..
In all fairness...
Silva cut down to 260 and was about 280 in their fight after he hydrated and ate. Fedor was 230 against him, 50 pound difference. Cormier had a 33 pound difference against him in his bout against Bigfoot. I do think it makes a difference, but also, if you just watch the fight, you will see Cormier definitely fought smarter and didn’t just rush in with looping right hooks. His striking was crisper, more disciplined, and more accurate.
Absurd.
Silva was at the limit. His camp said he came in on fight day at 280.
Liddell: 'I'll fight anyone, Silva? Yeah sure, Quinton Jackson? Sure, Randy Couture? Sure'
Reporter: 'What about Fedor Emelianenko?'
Liddell: 'Well if I'll have to...I'll fight him...if I have to'
When Fedor and Silva fought, there was a 30 pound weight difference between them…so how the hell is there a 25 pound weight difference between D-Co and Fedor? That would mean that Silva only weighs 5 pounds more than Cormier? Thats outlandish and tarded son
I don't really need a sig anymore..cause gyverbob follows me around and replies faster than my sig can display..
fuck you
you’re not going to make " D-Co" happen

I love Fedor...
And he’s an awesome fighter, but I just think he’s on a bad streak right now. It’s not the end of the world if someone is using better tactics or has evolved and adapted their game better. No one’s a God, no one’s unbeatable. Cormier looked amazing tonight, and has looked great in all of his fights. I’ve been wanting to see him fight ever since checking him out on challengers cards.
I hate to say it.
But with Cormier winning tonight, I think it sort of proved that this gp wasnt anything near what it was hyped up to be. Fedor was over the hill, bigfoot was built up from a win over a light heavy and a win over an old Fedor, and Werdum just ruined the first round. The real final should be Overeem vs Barnett, which would have saved this tournament.
I love Daniel but him being in the final is bad for the tournement.
Fedor and the people who beat him made this tournament what it was, but the fact that it was an over the hill Fedor undermined the hype for both guys who beat him, therefore undermining Cormier.

If you step back and think about it Cormier's victory is not that surprising...
…(perhaps how easy it was)…he’s a world class wrestler…he trains at AKA who know how to train fighters…and he has Cain as a sparring partner day in and day out…as far as Fedor goes…his time has passed….he had a run in MMA that will never be matched…enough bashing from the TUF brainwashed fans.
i started watching from ufc 3
fedor was the best fighter in a poor group of fighters ,you dont lose that ability he never had it in the first place ,his record speaks for itself ,nobody whos important tim sylvia was the same he was just the best in a shit division. Big nog is his only credible win and in ten years thats pathetic, fedor is a joke and will be forgotten in ten years,He hasnt held a championship belt that has real gold on it,

poor group of fighters...?
…someone loses and they suck?…that’s ridiculous….Pride had all the best hw in the world period…then when there was a chance to face the UFC’s best he obliterated them both….the sport has absolutely evolved…and you cannot stay inactive for long…and that was likely Fedor’s biggest downfall…at the same time 30 plus fights takes its toll…another interesting point is that every fighter (outside of Tito O) hails his accomplishments….the bashing is pretty much left to the spoon-fed TUF alumni sprinkled with a few Steve Jennum fans.
weres the evidence titos the only one who bashes him ?

fedors lost his last 3 to werdum who couldnt hang in the ufc
big foot who almost got ko’d by mike pyle and got destroyed by an overweight chubby light heavyweight,and hendo who has spent alot of his career at middleweight .Fedor has only beat ufc rejects who wouldnt even get in the top 15 in the ufc today,fedor tried carving a hall of fame career by fighting cans and got found out .at the end of the day hes a mid level fighter nothing more.His record is nothing to be proud off .As for chuck and hughes .Chuck is alot older than fedor and hes fought far more tougher opponents than fedor ever will. And he fought them consistently .and Hughes is still going ,yeah he lost to bj but hes still active and a threat and he fights elite fighters only ,Fedor picks washed up drunks and still struggles, Fedor never had a prime and to be honnest he shud still be in it .But he never had it in the first place ,It was an illusion .Fedor couldn’t last a round with anyone in the ufc’s light heavy or heavy divisions ,Shit i doubt he could hang with the top 8 middleweights, and i aint no tuf half ass fan ,Ive been watching since ufc 3 i remember it all .at the end of the day u can blame fedors mangement all u want but fedors got a voice. If he really wanted to fight the best he would of snatched danas arms off but he didnt and we all know why to keep the illusion going .Fedor lovers call everyone dilusional ,and only fans since tuf but the reality is your the the ones living a lie ,
