Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker Would Love To Book Gilbert Melendez vs. Eddie Alvarez

Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker talked with MMAFighting.com’s Ariel Helwani last weekend to discuss a number of subjects from Daniel Cormier’s performance in the Heavyweight Grand Prix Tournament, the “inevitable” fight between Cris ‘Cyborg’ Santos and Strikeforce champ Ronda Rousey, his hopes to bring former Bellator champ Eddie Alvarez in for a title match with Strikeforce champ Gilbert Melendez and more.

“Come on over to Strikeforce, (Eddie Alvarez), let’s do the Melendez fight. That would be fantastic. I think that he’s a guy who is extremely talented that we would love to have in Strikeforce to fight Gilbert. It would be great. … If he is a free agent and he is really free of any contractual relations, make the call. Eddie, come on down, let’s put the Melendez fight together.”
