    Cool now the GP has a purpose to crown a new king of SF Hw. Overroid should have been stripped years ago, and him thinking he can do the same shit he's done by saying he's injured and not defend his title but going abroad a little while later to fight some can.... yeah that is the worst thing a fighter can do to intentionally piss of Zuffa.

    It's 3 fights to win the thing and the winner(if it wasn't reem)is suppossed to fight Reem for his belt,I don't understand why Strikeforce even put themselves in this kind of position in the first place,having Reem in the tournament with only two fights left on his contract.

    I would of thought it would of been one of the first things done, to make sure all of the fighters entered into the tournament,contracts were sorted to cover the duration of the tournament.


    If Reem had fought and won the next round,he could of held strikeforce over a barrell on his new contract terms.If they didn't match them,he could of just fucked the whole tournament final up and walked over to the UFC as a free agent.


    Is this another move by ZUFFA to speed up the demize of Strikeforce,by finding another easy way to add another strikeforce Champ to their ranks or has Reem really pissed off the ferttitas and is now going to have to spend the rest of his MMA career,fighting Bums in Dream,Pro-Elite etc,while concentrating more on his K1 career.

    I'm guessing they'll put the HW title on the line for the final.

    The HW division in strikeforce just lost its two biggest names if Fedor retires now... Gutted about Overeem but at the same time not suprised. Can't see him fighting in UFC due to his K1 career.

    Josh Barnett is a much bigger name than Overeem. He's also a much better fighter.
