    "Both Overeem and Fedor are great fighters, I would be more than happy to fight either one. I have a lot of respect for each of them Ultimately, whoever it is, I will be happy to be in the cage and will give it my utmost and fight my heart out. I know that I can beat both Overeem and Fedor, so whatever happens, I guarantee that the fans will see an awesome fight, and I'll be prepared."

    “Strikeforce hasn't yet given us a definite opponent, but it seemed likely that it was going to be Overeem, and I've been kind of planning accordingly," Silva said. "I believe Scott Coker has said to a few people that I'm likely to fight Overeem next, and I would be truly honored to fight him for the Strikeforce title."


    SF Say Fedor isnt ready to go for the October cards, but Fedors people have been given a list of 3 possible opponents, Bigfoot/Overeem/Sergei...

    Bigfoot sounds ready to go by October, Fedor isnt, Overeem sounds like he is off to K-1 in October, Werdum is out till early 2011.

    Shocking with that much tallen in 1 place Coker could be in danger of ballsing everything up...

    SF dont have the benefit of a strong deep roster like what UFC has. That coupled with the fact that there no.1 HW at the moment is injured for a long time, and they dont have the balls to stand up to Overeem, instead let him do what he wants.

    Means that this scenario is inevitable for them.

    They just have to be less scared of Fedor and Overeem they need to be like UFC and tell people who they are fighting and when...

    Fedor is ready to go so if Bigfoot, simple make them fight in october

    Werdum is number 1 contender to Overeems belt but out till 2011 so let Overeem do the 2010 GP and fight Werdum is Jan/Feb

    Let the Fedor vs Bigfoot winner be number 1 contender ine June or so...

    Its easy if SF put their foot down and told fighter who they would fight and when it would work.

    Overeem vs Werdum
    Fedor vs Bigfoot
    Sergei vs Rogers
    SDR vs Arlovski
    Lavar vs V.Overeem
    Griggs/Cormier vs Sefo

    Good matchmaking can counter lack of depth but it seems too many of SF's heavies are free to do what they please for example

    Sefo = Found out he couldnt grapple and MMA wasnt for him, hasnt fought in about a year
    Lashley = allowed to fight Bums for as long as he wanted
    Overeem = threatening to fuck of to K-1
    Feodr = Co-Promote and has the option to cherry pick opponents

    UFC has fighters by the balls, fighers have SF by the balls they need to run a tighter ship as the saying goes.

    This is the same UFC that have tried telling Fitch and Koscheck that they'll fight? and Machida and Anderson that they'll fight?? That UFC?
