Strikeforce: Hendo vs. Babalu II - Daley vs. Smith Dec. 4th,St. Louis

[goh]

A rematch from 10 years ago.

Hendo vs. Babalu
Robbie Lawler vs. Matt Linland
Paul Daley vs. Scott Smith
Antonio Silva vs. Valentijn Overeem

Daley/Smith should be entertaining at least,for however long it lasts.

MMA Mania is reporting that Valentijn is out of the fight against Bigfoot.

Walker and now overeem out. That hurts the card quite a bit now.

Mike Kyle is the replacement for Overeem, and is a better overall match-up in my opinion.

Also, in place of the Herschel Walker bout will be Benji Radach vs Ovince St Preux.

This card is actually looking better and better.

Yeah its rare that injuries make a card better but when Herschel Walker and Valentin Overeem are the guys getting injured its not that hard to replace them with better fighters.

This card is better than the TUF Finale on Saturday but I know it will end up getting a fraction of the attention.

Sadly this is a true statement, but at least we get one really loaded night of fighting.

But thanks to the wonders of modern technology it's really easy to watch both!

You are 100% correct good sir

If you can't for some reason I'd say go with this for Daley/Smith alone. I can't imagine that not being a massive slugfest ending in KO even if it only lasts 2 minutes.

Anyone watching this tonight? Radach has been getting busted up pretty good.

Re: Strikeforce: Hendo vs. Babalu II - Daley vs. Smith Dec. 4th,St. Louis

Radach got absolutely destroyed. Rounds 1 and 2 were easy 10-8's.

Can't win fights turtling up on the ground. The refs scored it right with dominate rounds.

Silva came back and won........gave Kyle a pounding with that takedown. Silva is one ugly mug. LOL!

Re: Strikeforce: Hendo vs. Babalu II - Daley vs. Smith Dec. 4th,St. Louis

I have followed Strikeforce here and there, but I am very confused as to how Overeem is still the Heavyweight Champion with only 1 title defense in 3 years? Can someone please explain that to me? I just find it hard as to how Strikeforce would want to get bigger in MMA, yet their champion has defended the title once.

DAMN! Lawler just melted Lindland's face.
