Another pound of dynamite could be added to Strikeforce’s upcoming eight-man middleweight tournament.
Scott Coker, the promotion’s CEO, told MMAjunkie.com today that he plans to invite fearsome striker Melvin Manhoef to the field, which is expected to begin Aug. 21 at “Strikeforce: Houston.”
Coker added that former middleweight champion Cung Le will not participate in the tourney and will stick to “superfights.”
