Rhadi Ferguson has a lot going for him in the eyes of Strikeforce: He has a Ph.D., a background as a judo Olympian, and a cousin by the name of Kimbo Slice. There’s plenty for Strikeforce to promote there.
And now Ferguson also has a win in the Strikeforce cage, although it wasn’t the most impressive one, a second-round submission against a low-level fighter named John Richard who actually hurt Ferguson at the start of both the first and second rounds. Ferguson did manage to make Richard tap out to a knee bar, but Ferguson admitted after the fight that he hadn’t fought particularly well, giving himself a grade of D-minus.
