The post-fight press conference that took
place immediately after last night’s Strikeforce main event at the HP Pavilion
in San Jose, California had a strange vibe to it. Everyone there knew that
they had just witnessed something very surprising. The fighter widely
considered to be the best pound-for-pound MMA fighter in the world, Fedor “The
Last Emperor” Emelianenko (31-2), had just lost. Not only that, he had tapped
out at just 1:09 of the first round. His opponent, Fabricio Werdum (14-4-1),
was able to secure a triangle choke with an armbar that forced Fedor to
submit. To put it into perspective, Fedor landed just 5 out of 12 strikes in
the match while Werdum did not have a chance to land any strikes of any sort....Story>>>

Last night, Strikeforce’s Challengers MMA event took place at
the San Jose Civic Auditorium in San Jose, California. The
Challengers series focuses on up-and-coming fighters and fighters
who are not yet full-fledged stars. Instead of having 10,000
fight fans coming out to the HP Pavilion in San Jose for a Strikeforce
event, a sold-out crowd of 2,322 were crammed into a venue that
ensured that everyone would have a great view of the fights.
