Hmmmmm

So they didn't list opponents

My guess is Werdum for Fedor unless they can get Overeem to fight him, which I doubt. I wonder if they give Henderson a shot at Mousasi right away. Mousasi has a deal in his contract seeing he can only fight at events that Fedor is also fighting, so it would make sense for him to be on the card also.

Mous/Hendo needs to happen and I'd love to see it.

Mous needs to get his behind to the UFC word to Fedor

Yeah, i thought i read somewhere that Overeem won't fight in the US because of drug testing (correct me if I'm wrong) and I highly doubt Strikeforce would run their CBS show from Japan.

Werdum is the best bet for Fedor, and doesn't really excite me. He's not a total can, he's decent, but just a "meh" opponent. I think the Hendo fight will be much cooler, maybe if it's Mousasi fighting him!

2 more fights until the M1 contract is up.

The talk is its going to be Sheilds v Hendo for the middleweight belt.

I'd be shocked if Hendo's fight is anything but a title fight. One of the reasons he left the UFC was because he felt he deserved another title shot, was told he was going to get another title shot, and then didn't get it. The other reason was he wanted more money than Dana was willing to give him. Strikeforce probably opened up the coffers and told him he would get an immediate title shot. Let's face it, he walks in as the best middleweight in Strikeforce.
