With female MMA fighters Miesha Tate and Ronda Rousey headlining the next Strikeforce event on Showtime, the network and promotion introduced a sexy promo video bantamweight title fight. Tate won the 135 lbs. belt last July when she submitted Marloes...
Tomorrow, Means will make the most of the opportunity to prove that not only former Strikeforce, WEC and, yes, Pride FC champions and fighters can have an impressive run in MMA’s crème dela crème organization. “Incidentally,” he will prove this point,...

I want a title shot and I think I deserve one. If it was my decision, I would say I should have one, and I bet Sarah [Kaufman] is thinking the same way ... But if I have to fight another fight before I get that opportunity, then I will. If Strikeforce thinks that Ronda should be a top contender, then ob...
But one versus one, there is no-one better. Arsenal will have to keep a close eye on him. He won’t stay out on the right, he will roam - even more so with Thomas Vermaelen at left back. Robinho knows he will be in for a tough battle, so he will drift...
Well Condit, who was himself a big underdog against Diaz, said in the weeks leading up to their Super Bowl-weekend fight that he was going to spoil the party. And that he did, out-pointing the former Strikeforce champion to take home the “booty.” Can...

There are already lots of talented fighters in that division, and for too long they have had to choose to either move up in weight to a stacked 135-pound division to fight in Strikeforce or cut a crazy amount of weight to make 115 pounds in Bellator. We said earlier this year that we wanted to have a 12...
We're a feeder show to the UFC ... We look to develop every one of our guys to feed the UFC, Bellator and Strikeforce. Anyone we take on is with the intention ... of getting them to those organizations. We have clauses and conditions that if the UFC, Bellator or Strikeforce calls, we're happy to let the...
Strikeforce: Melendez vs. Masvidal
Strikeforce: Barnett vs. Kharitonov
I also heard that Strikeforce might survive ... Like I said, nothing's official.
Strikeforce and M-1 Global: Fedor vs. Henderson
I hope that, meanwhile, Strikeforce decides its future and that Bigfoot can come with all his power to the UFC
I signed the contract for these four fights after UFC purchased Strikeforce, so I guess they’ll keep us, they’ll keep the female divisions and female MMA keeps growing and growing, and I guess they’re keeping the girls and it depends on what we do to call UFC’s attention
Strikeforce: Diaz vs. Cyborg
Already considered one of the best fighters to never win a UFC belt, Henderson has had a remarkable career, winning multiple titles in Pride and holding the light heavyweight title in Strikeforce, all while defeating some of the best fighters in the world.
Well, I think certainly this is a marquee fight for me ... A very important fight. Dan Henderson is a legend and MMA champion (at) PRIDE, a champion of Strikeforce. He’s a guy with a big history in the sport and this fight obviously means a lot to me. Right now, my whole focus is on the fight with Dan H...
Obviously, I'd like to represent Strikeforce well, being their champion ... But first and foremost, I just need to represent myself and what I've done in my career.
Going from Strikeforce to the UFC is like going from the CFL to the NFL
If Sarah Kaufman's next in line, please, Strikeforce, let me get a crack at her first ... I really want to have a title fight against Miesha Tate. I don't want to take a risk on her losing.
We had an early exchange of punches, and I was lucky enough to land the right shot ... I'm very excited to continue my career with Strikeforce. I'm ready to fight anyone they put in front of me.
The guy is a fantastic wrestler, a two time NCAA, but I'm in there to die ... I felt him slowing down a few minutes before the finish, and I started taking bigger chances to try and close it for the fans. Now I'm ready for Strikeforce to put me on a main card.
I'm glad I got another opportunity to fight for Strikeforce ... He's a very tough guy. He hit me quite a few times and he hit me very hard. He forced me into making mistakes that I shouldn’t have made. I'm happy with the win but disappointed with my performance.
I had a great camp with Greg Jackson ... He didn't give me much free time, so I was prepared. I always work for the finish so I'm a little disappointed I wasn't able to end the fight. But I'm excited to get back to training, get better and continue to win in Strikeforce.
Yes, that’s still what I want to do ... Strikeforce, let me get a crack at her (Tate) first.
Whatever they put in front of me, we're gonna take one fight at a time. Whatever they put in front of me, I'm gonna handle it ... Whatever Strikeforce puts in front of me, we've got it going in.
I enjoyed my fights in Strikeforce, and the organization treated me well. I have no regrets. It was a good business decision ... I'm going to finish up my career in the UFC, and I am excited by it. I think it is fair to say I've accomplished a lot in the sport, but one thing I have not accomplished is w...
This is a marquee fight for me, a very important fight. Dan Henderson is a legend in MMA, he was a two-weight champion of Pride, and a champion of Strikeforce. He’s a guy with a big history in the sport and this fight means a lot to me
Just getting there, just getting a shot, even though I'm on the main card on Showtime for the Challengers series, it still the Challengers series ... I'm just happy to be there. I love to fight. I love to train. I love going to the shows. It's something I've always wanted to do. I always wanted to fight...
It's something I think fans have been looking forward to and wanting for a long time ... He's definitely well-rounded and a huge opponent for me to get past. I don't feel any pressure to perform because of coming from Strikeforce. I am not worried about proving anything.
