Following this past weekend’s “Strikeforce and M-1 Global: Fedor vs. Silva” event, it’s hard to say what was the more shocking revelation – the fact that Antonio Silva handed Fedor Emelianenko his second-straight defeat or that “The Last Emperor” was designated as a top choice for tournament alternate status.
But if you think Silva is offended by Strikeforce’s seeming willingness to grant Emelianenko a free pass back into the tournament, think again.
In fact, Silva wouldn’t mind an opportunity to prove to the world his first win was no fluke.
