Mike Kyle vs. Gegard Mousasi appears to be no more.
According to a report from MMA Weekly, "MAK" has been injured and forced to withdraw from his Light Heavyweight fight against "The Dreamcatcher" at the Strikeforce: "Tate vs. Rousey" event on March 3, 2012, from the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio.
The nature of the injury has not been disclosed and Strikeforce has yet to confirm the change, but an announcement is expected shortly. This is the second time the promotion has tried -- and failed -- to put this fight together.
Third time's a charm?
The Showtime-televised event will feature newly-minted women's champion Miesha Tate putting her 135-pound title on the line against undefeated Judo specialist Ronda Rousey.
Other match-ups booked for "The Discovery City" include K.J. Noons vs. Josh Thomson, former women's champion Sarah Kaufman vs. Alexis Davis and Paul Daley vs. Kazuo Misaki.

i love me some dijon moussard
I’m almost complete with my transformation…once they attach that donkey schlong on me, I will be able to satisfy myself like danago does all day long and change my name to Buck Angel II
I lost to Cruz Jackson. He’s the best. I padded his record and just a can. I talk shit to try and get replies when In reality I still play the original Halo on original XBOX like a religiously. I’m so totally awesome and straight and I act gay on a blog only because I’m the second loneliest mother fucker on Mania. First goes to Stallion. I want Shivan to lose to Cruz and Diaz to show how overrated he is. My favorite fighter is Josh Burkman. Thank You.
"i oilcheck need to take a reality check.What an imbecile i am to even think of going up against Scott1 with his perfect 1 and 0 sig record.I am already known as Manias biggest scumbag now i’ve got the moniker of a loser as well!TUT TUT SMH!!!"
I played 8=Danago in words with friends and he quit just like shogun.
this sucks
I was looking foward to that fight. I hope they find a replacement for Mac

Hopefully Feijao can't make it...
So we can get to see…wait for it…………………..wait for it…………..
Sasi buss Hendo’s ass!
Just like he didn't take the lil Nog fight, he won't take this
Hendo would get outstruck by either, they’re both better technically than him. However hendo does possess that right hand. But too much risk for him to give up a sure shot at the belt

Mousasi is a much better striker than Hendo.
I really think Gegard would wreck him.

That's what I think
Hendo likes to exchange, Sasi will pick him apart with straight, crisp punches and kicks…maybe even take him down in the later rounds

Yeah people forget that Gegard enjoys working off his back as well.

Yeah i know
but it’s just a loss that i feel was BS on his record.
He beat the snot out of Mo and wasn’t aware of the wrestler biased judging.

feijao
wont be possible he broke his arm in his last fight in september and said he needed surgery
Sucks, I keep saying it, they should merge this div with the UFC.
Champ left to UFC, title contender gets busted for roids, and two of their best lhw fighters are out with injury (Feijao and Kyle).
