On Saturday, June18, Strikeforce will continue its Heavyweight Grand Prix live from Dallas, TX.
Pride veteran Sergei Kharitonov and Antonio “Bigfoot” Silva have already advanced to the next round.
Tomorrow night we will find out who their opponents will be.
Top grappler Josh Barnett will take on Chicago slugger Brett Rodgers . The main event of the night will feature a rematch between Brazilian jiu-jitsu expert Fabricio Werdum and Strikeforce heavyweight champ Alistair Overeem.
The first two fights of the tournament ended early thanks to hard striking by Silva and Kharitonov. Tomorrow’s fights may end differently as many of the fighters are known for their submissions just as much as their knockouts.
Here is a ranking of who has the best submission game in the tournament.
