After the Strikeforce World Grand Prix: Barnett vs. Kharitonov wrapped up, fans were rightly celebrating Josh Barnett’s dominant victory, as well as the upset wins from Daniel Cormier and Luke Rockhold.
But for every winner, there is a fighter who came up short. And there are more than a few losers who have a lot of thinking to do on their flight out of Cincinnati.
Here’s the part where I pretend to know what’s next for these fighters, with a look into the future in my magical crystal ball.

For an overwhelmingly underhyped card, Strikeforce sure delivered last night.
Muhammed Lawal was able to knock out the Gracie hopes of ever being relevant in MMA again, when he floored Roger with a right hand in the first round.
After that, Luke Rockhold upset Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza in a grueling, back and forth fight.
Then the heavyweight grand prix semifinals started, and they did not last long at all.
Daniel Cormier was able to upset Antonio “Bigfoot” Silva, I’d like to state that I called it, and knock him out in the first round.
Then in the main event, Josh Barnett submitted Sergei Kharitonov in the first round with a side choke, similar to the one he got Brett Rogers with.
Jacare was a top 25 pound for pound fighter, so does Rockhold take his place now?
What about Cormier and Barnett? Were their performances enough to move them into the top 25 pound for pound fighters?
Read on to find out.

The best part about watching combat sports is that no matter what you might be expecting, things are constantly changing. Whatever seemed expected might be completely unimaginable six months from now.
For a sport where a fight can change in a moment, a day seems almost like an eternity.
Sometimes the fights go the way that most think they will and sometimes they shock us all with how they end up.
Let’s take a look at some of the most unsurprising and incredible moments from last night.

Many believed that the top heavyweight in the world would be crowned when the Strikeforce heavyweight grand prix tournament was announced in January of this year. At least four of the consensus top-10 ranked heavyweights in the world were entered in the tournament, including Alistair Overeem, Fedor Emelianenko, Fabricio Werdum and Josh Barnett.
At the time, it appeared almost to be fate that we would see Emelianenko vs. Overeem in the semi-finals of the tournament, given the structure of the tournament. But now, eight months later, as we head into the finals, only one of the original top four remains, while the other slot is filled by a fighter who wasn’t even in the original bracket.
Josh Barnett vs. Daniel Cormier will face off, likely later this year, to crown the Strikeforce heavyweight grand prix champion. So where do these two heavyweight juggernauts rank among the top-10 in their weight class, which has been dominated by UFC fighters in recent years?
Read on as we count down and rank the top-10 heavyweights in MMA following tonight’s Strikeforce heavyweight grand prix semi-finals round.

Back in June of 2009, I wrote an article titled: Mixed Martial Arts Hall of Fame: The First Class.
Being that it’s now been over two years since that article was dropped on the few people that were bored enough to read it during drunk Google searching, I have a new group of fighters to add to that list. These guys were at the apex of the sport at one point in their careers and are now on a (180 degrees in some cases) decline. Again, The criteria for admission is being dominant or changing the sport. Recent activity is largely ignored as most fighters don’t know when to call it a career.
Once again, if I left anyone off this list or if there are listed individuals that should not be there, by all means, send that hate mail.
So “Let’s Get It On,” and show the respect to the guys that deserve to be inducted in Round Two of the total arbitrary Mixed Martial Arts Hall of Fame.
