    Duane 'Bang' Ludwig vs Lyle Beerbohm is expected to headline Strikeforce's June 19th card.

    with a name like beerbohm.. you don't really need a nickname :D

    Beerbohm is 9-0 with 8 of his fights ending before the final bell.

    Ludwig has faced a who's who of small fighters like Jens Pulver, Takanori Gomi, BJ Penn, Josh Thompson, Tyson Griffin, Genki Sudo. Now he's lost to half and beaten half of those fighters, but it's experience nonethe less.

    Nick Diaz vs. Scott Smith and Brett Rogers vs. Alistair Overeem (C) added to the Strikeforce event in June. Nice.

    Just to make that Strikeforce even more titillating, Mr. Cyborg Santos's opponent is probably going to be Smokin' Joe Villasenor. That will be a brawl (ending with Santos getting KTFO, yet again, but still).

    Nick Diaz vs Scott Smith, is that gonna be at 185? Diaz is gonna be outsized pretty badly and his opponent wont be an old man this time either.

    180, reportedly.

    Diaz was pretty big when he fought Frank. I don't think size will be much of an issue.

    I'd have Diaz winning in the second round by TKO in that one. Smith's boxing is too loose for him to deal with Diaz, and his ground game sucks.

    *filled out undercard of WEC42... looks to be another solid and exciting card by the WEC... now if only they'd broadcast more than 4 fights in 2 hours...

    I'm liking Strikeforce so far. Their last card plus this one has had some solid names on it.

    The Sokoudjou/Mousasi fight is off from what I've heard. They are looking for a feeder fish to give Sok to get his confidence back.

    The on again/off again bout between Barnett and Emelianenko is back on now, seemingly.
