("I thought you said you were Mr. Cyborg?")
Here we are with Strikeforce’s first major event of the 2011, or as we like to call it, their first shot at fucking up the good things they did last year.
Although rumor has it Gus Johnson won’t be in the broadcast booth tonight, he promises that he’ll bring his MMA-retarded rhetoric back in time for the first round of the Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand Prix in February, despite the fact that HDNet has announced Michael Shiavello and Bas Rutten will be added to the announce team — at least for the prelims.
With no GuJo to screw up the broadcast and no feuds brewing between the Diaz’s and opponents they’ll likely never face, there’s a pretty good chance that this event could go off with out a hitch. The only thing that could knock this ship off course would be for Cyborg to upset Diaz and for Lawler to knock out Jacare.
And for the record, we WANT Strikeforce to succeed more than we want to see Justin Bieber fall down a flight of stairs, it’s just that they haven’t exactly given us a lot of indicators that they’re ready to go head-to-head with Zuffa’s Evil Empire (Just kidding, Dana. Ben doesn’t want to get fucked again.)
Let’s get this thing going. Spoilers after the jump. Refresh often.

Over the last two-and-a-half years, Nick Diaz has found a quality that eludes all but the best fighters: consistency. With all of the various methods of attacks and permutations that lie within them, MMA can be a terrifyingly dizzying sport in which to participate. Yet Diaz seems to have made the leap to where he has an innate feel between himself and his opponent, leading to an eight-fight win streak.
The Strikeforce welterweight champion attempts to defend his belt for the second time, this time against Evangelista “Cyborg” Santos, a fighter whose record does not necessarily match his fearsome style. “Cyborg” is a throwback in the sense that he cares little about planning or technique, often letting his fights devolve into battles of attrition, and for that, he’s become a favorite among hardcore fans who appreciate that type of old-school mentality. Among more mainstream fans, Santos is hardly known. Even in a sport like MMA where records are not the only report card on a fighter’s career, Santos’ 18-13 mark has him underappreciated by many who see that type of number and automatically think “journeyman.”
Because of that, Diaz is a heavy favorite to beat Santos at Strikeforce: Diaz vs. Cyborg.

So you’re planning on watching the Strikeforce fights• this weekend, despite the fact that we here at CagePotato refuse to say anything nice about them, ever, upon pain of death? Well, there’s some decent fights on the lineup, and a double handful of undercard fighters that are hoping to make the broadcast. Among them, you’ll find middleweight Eric Lawson, a six-foot-something Californian who you may have seen on one of his six previous Strikeforce appearancesº. You may look at his 9-3 record and quickly dismiss him as small potatoes.
But … maybe you run into the guy while you’re laid over in an airport somewhere in Middle America, because it’s snowing every damn place in the country that it’s not supposed to snow, and you learn a few things about a guy who may or may not have an adrenaline addiction, a guy who went in to MMA with relatively little training just to see what it was like. Either that, or E Lawdog‡ heard about my nineteenth degree black belt in MMA and general ninjaness and called me up to shoot the breeze.
