From Dallas, Texas, all 10 competitors from tonight’s Strikeforce main card were on weight and are ready to fight.
The main event features “The Demolition Man” Alistair Overeem (34-11) vs. Fabricio Werdum (14-4). Overeem is currently the Strikeforce heavyweight champion, but his title won’t be on the line for this bout. Overeem is a Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt and has a victory over Overeem from their fight in 2006.
“The difference between five years ago and now is about 40 pounds of whoop-ass,” Overeem said in the post-weigh-in interview with Mauro Ranallo.
The other Grand Prix quarterfinal bout is Josh Barnett (29-5) vs. Brett “The Grim” Rogers (11-2).
