    ahhh Dana the promoter, minimalising any and all competition.

    I'm hoping it's a big success and the UFC follows suit. Not with any one night tourney's but a year long tourney. It'd work really well if you have the champ of one weight class doing TUF and the contenders fighting it out to face him at the end of the seasons. Hell have 2 champs in different weight classes and then have a huge PPV with 2 belts on the line!!

    I know, I know, I'm a f'n genius ;)

    I really kind of agree with him. Strikeforce is not a big name promotion in terms of its popularity with the casual sports fan.

    It also doesn't help that you've got Overeem calling Cain Velasquez the best HW in the world.
