2 events announced, signings, Strikeforce: Nashville results

 

Strikeforce announce next two cards.

 

May 15th, will see Strikeforce make its debut in New Jersey, as the Louis Brown Athletic Center will host Strikeforce: Meadowlands, headlined by a Heavyweight title match as Fabricio Werdum (13-4-1, 2-0 Strikeforce) will take on Dutch champion Alistair Overeem (32-11, 2-0 Strikeforce). One of these men will get their third victory, the other, his first Strikeforce loss. The welterweight championship will also be defended, as the older Diaz brother (Nick, 21-7, 3-0 Strikeforce) will defend his title against the British Jim Wallhead (18-5) who's making his Strikeforce debut.

 

Then Strikeforce will head back to the Save Mart Centre in Fresno, CA with a CBS TV Special. Brett Rogers (10-1, 2-1 Strikeforce) coming off a loss against Fedor Emalienko, will look to get back to his winning ways, as he takes on former pro wrestler Daniel Puder (8-0, 0-0 Strikeforce). The co-main event will be the final of a mini tournament held that very night between 4 undefeated female Welterweights. #1 P4P women fighter Megumi Fuji (19-0, 0-0 Strikeforce) will take on Kerry Vera (2-0, 1-0 Strikeforce) and the P4P #2 Sarah Kaufman (10-0, 2-0 Strikeforce) will take on Zoila Frausto (4-0, 1-0 Strikeforce)

Strikeforce has been on a major signing session, including the undefeated Daniel Puder, who is set to headline Strikeforce on CBS, as well as the current heavyweight champion's older brother, Valentijn Overeem. Other notable signings include undefeated women such as Megumi Fuji and Aisling Daly. Jim Wallhead, Alex Reid, Paul Sass and Tom Watson have all been signed in the hope to bolster the org's audience in the UK.

Josh Thomson def. Gilbert Melendez by submission at 2:53 of Round 1 to retain the Strikeforce Lightweight Championship.

 

Strikeforce Middleweight Championship

Jake Shields © vs Dan Henderson

 

With one title retained, and another one that changed hands, it was up to Shields and "Hendo" to deliver another good fight, and they did.

Marloes Coenen vs Gina Carano

 

It's ladies time, as these two beautiful top contenders to Cyborg Santos' Middleweight title squared off, in a match that no doubt would give the winner a shot at the championship.

 

If the crowd came to see long, boring fights with nobody going in for the kill, they sure got what they wanted, another fight that went 15 minutes, when Gina Carano won the fight by split decision.

Strikeforce Welterweight Championship

Nick Diaz © Vs Jim Wallhead

 

Another fight that went 3 rounds, of course that doesn't matter, as it was a title match, therefore it had 5 rounds, but it only reached the 4th round, it was a good match, with a lot of clinching up and fists flying around, but in the end, Diaz' ground game failed on him, as he gave up his arm, and just seconds later, tapping out to Wallhead's armbar.

Strikeforce Heavyweight Championship

Alistair Overeem © Vs Fabricio Werdum

 

Another title fight, another 4 round fight, another title change.

 

That's right, Werdum took Overeem for a whole 4 rounds. As the 4th round started, Werdum went for the takedown, Overeem failed to counter this into a Guillotine, and instead started eating punches until the referee called an end to the fight.

Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou vs Kevin Randleman

 

The night started off explosively, for one man anyway, as Randleman couldn't get a single bit of offense in, and Sokoudjou quickly finished the fight after 1:51 of the first round.

 

Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou def. Kevin Randleman by TKO in 1:51 of round 1

 

Cung Le vs Ronaldo Souza

 

The first round was pretty uneventful, with an early take down by Jacare, and both men pulling guard on each other. The second round started off much better, when Cung Le landed an early head kick that sent Souza flying to the mat, followed by a flurry of powerful punches, which forced the referee to stop the fight.

 

Cung Le def. Ronaldo Souza by TKO in 0:49 of round 2

 

Strikeforce Women's Welterweight Championship

Sarah Kaufman vs Megumi Fujii

 

An advantage couldn't quite be given to either woman, although Kaufman had a longer rest, she went for the full 15 minutes in her fight, where as Fujii only took just over two and a half minutes to tap out Kerry Vera.

Two undefeated streaks were already ended, and another one was about to end.

After a slow first round, which included the referee bringing the fighters up to their feet twice, the second round also went to the ground quickly, but this time, Fujii took advantage, and got control of Kaufman's arm, forcing her to tap out to the armbar.

 

Megumi Fujii def. Sarah Kaufman by submission in 1:55 of round 2 to win the Womens' Welterweight title

 

Brett Rogers vs Daniel Puder

 

In perhaps an anti-climatic main event, Rogers and the undefeated Daniel Puder had a boring 3 rounder fight, which although slow, was dominated by Rogers, as he won the fight 30-27.
