Now that the UFC's parent company, Zuffa, has offically purchased its stiffest competition, what does that mean to us as MMA fans? Dana White hinted at very little. He continued to say it would be "business as usual" meaning that Strikeforce and the UFC would continue to run as individual entities. Strikeforce has contracts with dozens of fighters, and a pretty big contract with Showtime to air their fights. The plan is Zuffa will honor all those contracts, but once they are up, anything is fair game.

And the new Strikeforce Light Heavyweight Champion...

Mar

Maybe the Strikeforce Light Heavyweight Championship isn't meant to have a defending champion, for the 4th time in a row, the belt was on teh line, and changed hands, this time to Dan Henderson. Bobby Southworth was the first of this streak to lose the belt losing to Renato "Babalu" Sobral, who in turn lost it to Gegard "The Dream Catcher" Mousassi, who coughed it up to "King" Mo Lawal, who himself turned it over to Rafael "Feijao" Cavalcante, the man Hendo beat to become the latest Light Heavyweight Champion.

Strikeforce has been developing a very nice stable of fighters within their promotion, guys like Jason Mayhem Miller, Dan Henderson, Jacare Souza, etc., but that has never been more true than in their Heavyweight Division.
