Fabricio Werdum apparently will take an extended layoff this fall and winter.
Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker today confirmed to MMAjunkie.com that the heavyweight fighter will be on the bench until January 2011. As a result, no opponent has been set for his return.
“The date is really to be determined because Fabricio is not going to fight until the beginning of next year, so he’s going to be sidelined for the next five months,” Coker said.
