    Re: Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand Prix Finals: Barnett vs. Cormier (May/19)

    Wonder what the line will be on Barnett-Cormier. Could be worth putting some money down on DC.

    Re: Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand Prix Finals: Barnett vs. Cormier (May/19)

    Marquardt/Woodley could be for the vacant welterweight championship. Depends on whether they want to make Barnett/Cormier 5-rounds I guess. Three five-round fights is too much, as we've seen in the past.

    DFW needs to just turn SF into a minor league for the UFC.

    Rumour has it Josh Thompson has a knee injury and may be out of his fight with Melendez.

    The most injured fighter ever?

    Re: Strikeforce World Grand Prix: Heavyweight Finals - Barnett vs. Cormier (May/19)

    Insider/troublemaker Front Row Brian is reporting that Thompson has a torn PCL. No word yet from anyone in Thompson's camp or from Strikeforce.

    Ariel Helwani has confirmed that Josh Thompson is in fact injured but it looks like he'll be taking the fight anyway.

    Zwicker/Inocente put on one of the biggest slugfests of the year. Crazy scrap.

    Rez Dog is a fucking zombie. He took massive hits in that fight and was rushing Inocente face-first by the end.

    Vallie-Flagg might've just upset JZ. Another hard fought scrap.

    Re: Strikeforce World Grand Prix: Heavyweight Finals - Barnett vs. Cormier (May/19)

    ^ He did. Looked like a unanimous decision but IVF takes the split.

    Flagg 165/270 vs. 73/223 from JZ

    Big win for the Jackson fighter

    Chris Spang!

    First knockout of the night. Burrell wouldn't go down but he was in a bad way. A truckload of knees and punches from Spang to end the fight.
