LOS ANGELES – Strikeforce light heavyweight champion Gegard Mousasi has no plans to fight until his body fails him. When the 24-year-old hits the big 3-0, he’s out.
With that in mind, he has set strict goals for his career’s path, including a jump to heavyweight in 18 months. Before he bulks up, though, he wants to fight six to eight times in 2010 and plans to start by fighting Muhammed “King Mo” Lawal in April. He also plans to participate in a DREAM eight-man light heavyweight tournament rumored for June.
But after that, where could the breakout star ply his trade? He has at least one fight promotion in mind.

You could say UFC light heavyweight Stephan Bonnar (11-6 MMA, 5-5 UFC) has woken up and smelled the coffee.
In his most recent fight, the original “Ultimate Fighter” alumnus was paired with Mark Coleman at UFC 100 after “The Hammer’s” disastrous debut at UFC 93. Many thought it would be a walk in the park for Bonnar.
It, of course, wasn’t. And following that loss, Bonnar recently told MMAjunkie.com he’s quit trying to look for meaning in his dreams and instead has taken a more traditional approach to his fight camp.

The case of Filipino boxer Z Gorres, who sustained a life-threatening brain injury during a recent bout, is prompting the Nevada State Athletic Commission to reexamine insurance coverage for combat-sports events in the state.
Currently, Nevada requires promoters to carry $50,000 of medical insurance for a mixed martial arts show or boxing event. However, Gorres, 27, has incurred medical costs more than 10 times that amount as a result of the severe brain injury he sustained in a Nov. 13 bout against Colombian Luis Melendez.
In our latest MMAjunkie.com Fight Biz installment, business columnist Steve Sievert talks to NSAC executive Keith Kizer about the issue. Sievert also discusses the viability of the WEC on pay-per-view and which U.S. state could soon become the 43rd to regulate MMA.
