    Nice, at least hes staying in North America. There'll be some good fights in Strikeforce for Fedor. Sorta disappointed that he didn't sign with the UFC but whatever, I was really only interested in Fedor vs Brock and Fedor vs Mir. He has already beaten Nogueira already so nothing special there.

    Strikeforce seems to be taking a huge risk here.

    There aren't a lot of fights with that company for Fedor (Brett Rogers is still very green and Overeem and Werdum are both middle of the road heavyweights).

    I guess this will be a good way of testing if Fedor is a draw in North America. He hasn't been much of one so far.

    Epic failure on Fedor's behalf.
