Strikeforce returned to Showtime this past Saturday night (March 3, 2012) from the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio, featuring Ronda Rousey breaking out another armbar to win the women's 135-pound championship, much to the dismay of her opponent, Miesha Tate, who walked away with a mangled arm.
Not broken, as it turns out, but mangled nonetheless.
Josh Thomson scored a unanimous decision victory over K.J. Noons in the co-main event of the evening. He'll likely move on to a championship bout against Gilbert Melendez to complete their trilogy.
Other action on the card saw Kazuo Misaki beat Paul Daley at his own game, Lumumba Sayers easily dispose of Scott Smith, and Ronaldo Souza blow by Bristol Marunde.
In case you missed any of the bone crunching action -- or just want to relive it -- below are links to all the major storylines borne from Saturday night's event.
