PPV Main Event. $30.

It was only one half of the draw. The other half, featuring Alistair Overeem and Fabricio Werdum is on April 9th.

Today, the first four fights were finished in the first round, only the main event going into the second. And what a main event :shock:

Brian Ebersole (whoever he is) is expected to be the replacement.

On paper, the event is very average.

I have seen Brian Ebersole fight on the Australian MMA promotions. Very impressive and should do ok.
What an outstanding Strikeforce card and production. I can't wait for the April show. Sad to see Fedor beaten like that but I guess it shows that MMA continues to evolve and has again lifted to another level.

Sad indeed, hopefully he doesn't retire. I reckon Silva had gassed out and if Fedor had been allowed to fight the third round I sense it could have been a very different result (and just quietly, the end of the second round when they were both trying to submit each other at the same time was utterly captivating MMA!) Nevertheless, a dominant and impressive performance by Silva.

Can't wait to see Alistair Overeem in action again, that dude is a monster.

Having just watched TUF 11 on the weekend I'll be interested to see how Noke and Camozzi go. Camozzi was unlucky in TUF having cracked a jaw in the prelim fights.

Nick Ring is an interesting one as well. He was 10 and 0 in TUF11 when forced to have his third reco. Doesn't look like he's fought since, so this looks to be his comeback match. He was very promising leading into TUF.

Mark Hunt - I just watched Combat on Foxsports and herd he was going into the UFC. It'll be interesting to see how he goes given his record is pretty ordinary.

And finally, GO GEORGE!

Yep, you gotta get in early and the volume is not ideal if your a fan of Joe Rogans commentary. Its free but you wont quite get the whole experience at the Tav

Anyone else seen the ads for the doco on Mark Kerr that is going to be on OneHD Sunday night? Looks like it will be interesting viewing.
