SAN JOSE — This weekend’s Strikeforce fighters took to the stage in front of a relatively small, but enthusiastic crowd at the HP Pavilion on Friday afternoon to make Saturday night’s match-ups official. While local favorites like Cung Le and Josh Thomson got a warm reception, it was still Fedor Emelianenko who commanded the loudest cheers, a fact that even brought a brief smile to his face.
MMA Fighting will be on the scene and live blogging the action this Saturday night beginning at 8 pm ET, all the way through the Showtime portion of the card at 10 pm ET/PT. Full weigh-in results are below.

(Healy vs. Ryan Ford @ MFC 17, 7/25/08)
After losing his belt to Gilbert Melendez last December, Josh Thomson returns to the Strikeforce cage tomorrow night at Fedor vs. Werdum, where he will be kicking off the Showtime broadcast against Pat "Bam Bam" Healy. Healy may be an unknown quantity among casual fans, but he’s a tough competitor who’s been fighting professionally since 2001, and could actually give the Punk a run for his money. Here’s what you need to know about him:
– Healy’s record stands at 22-15, with 19 of those wins coming via stoppage. His resume includes notable victories over Dan Hardy, Paul Daley, Carlos Condit, Mike Guymon, Ryan Ford (twice), and most recently, a unanimous decision over Bryan Travers at the Lindland vs. Casey Strikeforce Challengers card last month. He’s had the honor of being beaten up by Denis Kang, Chris Lytle, Brad Blackburn (twice), Jay Hieron, and Rory Markham.
– A current member of Team Quest’s Gresham camp and former collegiate wrestler, Healy was previously Maximum Fighting Championship’s welterweight champ, until he relinquished the belt to compete at lightweight. He has also competed for the IFL and WEC, and had one fight in the UFC — a first-round submission loss to Anthony Torres at UFC Fight Night 6.
– Healy is coming into this fight as a replacement for Lyle "Fancy Pants" Beerbohm, who suffered an elbow injury in his last fight against Vitor Ribeiro at Heavy Artillery. He’s a sizable betting underdog in the +300 to +380 range.
– He has a twin brother, Ryan, who also fights.
