Be honest, none of us thought Strikeforce would actually get to renew their contract with Showtime network, but miraculously a deal was made. So naturally, Dana White will finally be involved in promoting the organization. White stated, “I never thought I would say this, but I am very much looking forward to building Strikeforce and working very closely with Showtime.”
Thankfully White will be apart of things though, because Strikeforce is losing its best known division, the Heavyweights as the top guys migrate over to the UFC. But don’t fret, we will all get to see that long awaited Heavyweight Grand Prix Tournament Finale with Josh Barnett vs. Daniel Cormier before the division is completely absorbed, though of course, no date on that fight card has been announced.
Also on the list of cuts is the Strikeforce Challengers series, but you probably don’t care about that since that’s pretty much why it’s been axed.
