    This is a pretty good card. I'm going to find a feed to watch it for sure. I'm surprised that Hallman and Bang are on the undercard though.
    The good news is that the ladies will be fighting 3 five minute rounds rather than the oh so lame 3 minute rounds.
    War Kaufman!!

    So far so good, I won't vouch for the site though, make sure your adblock/virus software is running.

    Smokin' Joe vs. Cyborg might last ten seconds but I doubt it lasts two rounds.

    No surprise, the ladies are stealing the show again. These girls hit like girls, though. I don't see anyone getting KO'd. No Cyborg/Carano here.

    Re: Strikeforce Challengers: Villasenor vs. Cyborg

    Kaufman takes the decision via sprawl and brawl. The girl from BC is still undefeated but I don't like her chances against the Trinity (Santos, Carano, LaRosa).

    Re: Strikeforce Challengers: Villasenor vs. Cyborg

    Dunno, the weight classes in women's are screwy. I don't know who is and isn't supposed to be fighting there.

    I'm inclined to say LaRosa is top in that class because she is smaller than Carano/Santos.

    Re: Strikeforce Challengers: Villasenor vs. Cyborg

    good point, I forgot about LaRosa at that weight class. Kaufman would be giving up at least 10 lbs to Carano or Santos.

    I wouldn't say Kaufman was brawling either, she didn't over commit to a finish until late in the 3rd. She was using precise striking and getting in and backing out so she wasn't taken down. That's smart fighting with good technique.

    Shit, you can always count on Jorge Gurgel for a sloppy kickboxing war.

    yup, but I enjoy the occasional slug fest, even as unskilled as that one. I just don't wanna see it often.
