Bleacher Report’s Tony Preston:

Cung Le, a Sanshou kickboxer and mixed marital artist, recently told ESPN that he will not be fighting in 2011.

Instead, Le is going to be in five motion pictures this year. Due to his filming schedule, he says that a fight this year is “impossible.”

Le last fought in June 2010, in a fight against Scott Smith.

That bout saw Le claim victory over Smith by way of a second-round knockout. The fight was a rematch of their clash in December 2009, in which Smith pulled off a stunning third-round knockout over Le, despite Le having dominated. Le’s career record is 7-1, every fight ending by knockout.

Before his two fights with Smith, Le fought his biggest name opponent to date in Frank Shamrock for the Strikeforce middleweight title.
