I heard rumors that there is some kind of partnership forming between Strikeforce and Dream. It would be interesting to see if they just copromote or form a new promotion. (along with M1 probably).
UFC is almost a household name at this point. Good luck to the rest.

Yea, Dana went on the attack today, talking trash about Strikeforce for the 1st time since he thinks copromoting will kill them.
To me there are only 5 fighters outside the UFC that I can see having some type of draw against Fedor and they are Rogers, Overeem, Werdum, Josh Barnett (in Japan) and maybe Bobby Lashely and that isn't taking into consideration of these HWs knock each other out of contention or suffer a bad loss to a "no name" hw.
I like Strikeforce but they are staring down the barrel of the UFC's shotgun now. I wouldn't be surprised if the UFC counters Fedor's first fight with an airing of UFC 100 on Spike.
Tonight's fight card is horrible.
If Griffin fights with his newfound, intelligent style, he may take this to a decision. If he doesn't, Anderson will probably KO him. Either way, I predict an Anderson victory. Griffin's shot is not very large.
I haven't analyzed the BJ vs Florian matchup extensively, but I see BJ winning tonight.
I don't really see why so may thought Griffin was going to win. Anderson's is like...tailor made for beating guys like Griffin.
BJ looked great and won just as I figured. I like Kenny, but he doesn't have what it takes to pull off Gearges St. Pierre's strategy against BJ. I bet his cornermen were pissed. They told him to stop doing the clinch against cage routine because BJ kept escaping. Kenny ignored them and got choked out for his efforts.
I'd love to see GSP vs Silva, but GSP is much smaller than Anderson.
Machida vs Silva probably won't happen. I remember somewhere that Anderson doesn't wish to fight a teammate. Besides that, there's a line for the shot at Machida right now.
