Strikeforce recorded a live gate of just $68,805 at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Jan. 7, 2012, according to official figures released today from the Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC).
The final attendance of 1,992 was a result of 927 tickets sold and 1,065 "comps." A total of 727 seats at "The Joint" remained unfilled.
More tickets were given away than actually purchased, which means that if you bought a ticket for the Showtime-televised event, there's a pretty good chance the guy next to you didn't.
"Rockhold vs. Jardine" featured Strikeforce middleweight champion Luke Rockhold defending his 185-pound title by beating the brakes off UFC veteran Keith Jardine.
A genetically engineered Muhammad Lawal blew the doors off Lorenz Larkin while Robbie Lawler landed a "Ruthless" flying knee to paste ProFC import Adlan Amagov.
Good times.

Gates are hardly ever profitable. No big deal.
Here do I swear fealty and service to Choro, the mightiest and most hung of all Maniacs. In trolling or absence. In living or dying. From this hour henceforth, until my Lord release me…or the banhammer…take me.

When will they learn..
that putting these lower level cards in VEGAS is not a good thing… This same card in foxwoods or mehegan sun would have sold out…
I wish I knew what Dana was thinking when he extended the Strikeforce contract....
Cause right now that decision seems like a total blunder.

The gates mean nothing. Strikeforce is a guaranteed winner because they get money from Showtime, regardless of anything else.

Lol, maybe the UFC just has so much money that they just need something to do with it, and keeping strikefarce alive was the best option.

Maybe Showtime paid most of the show.

1,065 free tickets?
No wonder these fucking morons lose money
I will never pick another british fighter to beat Barboza. I’m a complete idiot for picking Etim. I lost due to one of the most vicious wheel kick ko’s i’ve ever seen. When i’m at home alone when my wife is not there, i occasionally finger my own asshole, whilst not even jerking it. I just love the feeling of it in my butt. I’m a homo. I suck dick for bus fair then walk home. I will never bet Cruz Jackson again, he is too amazing. I love him and am so gay for him and his stolen bike. I would like to form a formal request of fellatio for him because thats how much i’m on his dick.
rockhold is is running like napoleon dynamite in that pic
