I’m a little concerned with the specifics Ballkick knows about the fashion industry, but still… funny shit!

Goddamnit, Ballkick AGAIN FTW.

On a side note I just read that Gus Johnson has hired recently disgraced Dior designer John Galliano as his personal fashion co-ordinator. This has created quite a stir in the LGBT community. All eyes will be on Strikeforce this June waiting to see how Fabulous Gus Johnson will look as he has his “Coming Out” on live TV.

Hey. I’m your man for the Dallas show. Hook it up.

Now THIS is partially why I love CagePotato. For photos and captions like this one. Fuckin’ hilarious shit, guys.

^^ Barnett can’t fight because he lost his license to fight, and the commission has to reinstate it. Since he blew them off at his previous scheduled hearing, refused to abide by any punishment, and chose to go overseas, they haven’t yet reinstated his license.
I think they wanted to do it in Japan, and then looked at the costs involved, and that interest in the sport seems to be dying in Japan, and gave up that idea.

Dude barnett popped for roids like years ago what the hells the problem why can’t he fight? I’m sure this is whats screwing it up.

@ ccman
I know it’s gross dog, but when you’re desparate, whattya gonna do.
@ OBI
We’re getting tired of your freakin cameo appearances in this bitch. We want you stayin in! Wait…….You know what the fuck I meant!

I have to admit, this is a really good way to lose your Heavyweight Champion to the UFC, and arguably a Top 5 Heavyweight, especially because he doesn’t want to sit on the sidelines for too long and not make money. I bet Dana White is loving this.

I really like Strikeforce and want to see them give the UFC some good competition, because monopolies suck, but this is a realy big screw up by Scott Coker. I think it’s because they signed Josh Barnett, who should be known as “The MMA Promotion Assassin.”

You guys are all too busy sucking Dana’s dick to know anything about MMA. The UFC is more like the WWF than anything else.

M-1 will not let Strikeforce fold.

until they have milked …every…last… cent.

Strikforce will be out of business by the end of the year. If Reem loses they will be out of business by August.

How can they still call this a tournament? Tournaments are supposed to have a sense of urgency about them. Waiting until April 9th sounded ridiculous to me, but this…? Terrible. CP called it—this was never going to work.

See you guys for the finals of this GP when Shane DelRosario faces Chad Griggs in 2016!
It will take place at an undisclosed location in the Caribbean, and will now be held under the promotion of Nemesis Fighting, which will have acquired Strikeforce a few months earlier for $24 in trinkets and beads.

I don’t see any of the usual strikeforce cronies chiming in on this one.

at least Bellator is starting back up.

“Ran out of time to properly promote it.”

Uhh….yeah. Right.

Here’s my guess: Strikeforce was all set to go in Japan. Then, the Yakuza stepped in, Coker saw a catastrophe coming, bailed on Japan and realized he couldn’t get anything worth while booked in the US for that date.

I at least give him props for going big in Dallas.

Now, the question STILL remains: will Barnett be licensed to fight in Texas?

They didn’t tell the truth, they are currently working on the fix for Fedor.

I got a great idea…let’s reward a guy who couldn’t make weight for his title shot by giving him..Oh yes…..another fucking title shot. Go Strikeforce!

Ran out of time to properly promote the event?!?!?
 
BWWWWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!
 
I expected some sort of excuse, but not THAT excuse.

Come on guys, they have to make sure to get Overeem and Barnett’s cycles in sync.

2.8 minutes? thats like 6x.

and you had sex WITH YOUR OWN GIRLFRIEND?? thats gross bro.

It makes perfect sense. Why just last night I told my chick, “Listen, I know I came in 2.8 minutes. Instead of hoppin right back in there while you’re still hot and ready, I’m gonna sleep for a while and give you some time to get even hotter and readyer THEN, it’ll be even better when we restart this thing in the morning!” She was gone when I woke up to go pee an hour later. Boy did that bitch miss out!!!!

I am digging deep to find anything that remotely feels like shock.

Once again that godzilla sized marketing department at strikeforce dropped the ball. say good bye momentum, say good bye casual fan interest, say hello to the Barnett factor. Anyone else think maybe finding a venue problem is another way of saying ‘we can’t get Josh licensed”???

Oh, and will they substitute in an alternate for the HWGP if one of the participants dies from boredom while waiting for the fights to happen? Maybe that’s their plan to get Fedor back in.

You forgot to mention the new Strikeforce Ring Girl. Why else would anyone be tuning in?

Surprise
