STRIEKFORCE: Evolution
A lightweight title-unification bout between Strikeforce champion Josh Thomson (16-2) and interim champion Gilbert Melendez (16-2) headlines the organization's Dec. 19 event.
The latest "Strikeforce: Evolution" card now includes:
- Champ Josh Thomson vs. interim champ Gilbert Melendez (lightweight title-unification bout)
- Cung Le vs. Scott Smith
- Matt Lindland vs. Ronald "Jacare" Souza
- Muhammed "King Mo" Lawal vs. Mike Whitehead
- Robbie Lawler vs. TBA
- Antwain Britt vs. Scott Lighty
look forward too this one. Hoping I can get good line on lindland.
Bet the house on king mo cant believe whitehead agreed to that fight such a bad matchup for him.
Benji Radach will not face off against Robbie Lawler in a featured middleweight bout at Strikeforce:Evolution on Dec. 19 at the HP Pavilion in San Jose, Calif.
Radach’s agent, Ken Pavia, said the fighter still hasn’t been medically cleared to begin training again following surgery on his right hand last April. Radach, 30, broke his hand in multiple places during his third-round loss to Scott Smith at Strikeforce “Shamrock vs. Diaz” on April 11. Pavia said Radach would be cleared “soon” to resume training, but didn’t give a specific timeline.
Lawler is still expected to compete on Dec. 19. Monte Cox, Lawler’s manager, said the promotion has not confirmed a new opponent for the heavy-handed fighter yet.
Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker told Sherdog.com Monday that Lawler’s adversary would be announced in the next couple of days.
American Kickboxing Academy standout Trevor Prangley is expected to face Robbie Lawler at Strikeforce: Evolution on Dec. 19 in San Jose, Calif.
Multiple MMAWeekly.com sources indicated the bout was all but signed. One source said Prangley, 37, is awaiting a bout agreement and is expected to sign as soon as Monday afternoon.

less than a week out for this event and no odds posted, lets go already
^^^Ummmmmm.....no
I can't wait to see the odds on all of these fights. It seems like some of these are really easy picks. Cung Le and King Mo will both win easily.
Linland gets KOed for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. He's older now, he's been Knocked into lalaland, stiff so many times that it's getting easier to go there.
Lindland has only been KOd once in the last 5 years, and Jacare has never KOd anybody.
I honestly think someone paid lindland to stand with vitor.
he really had no time to take it to the ground, fight was over in 30 secondsOriginally Posted by brooks85
lindland would have had fedor down in :15 seconds if Fedor had not grab the ropes, 4 times. Definitely some MJ treatment.
have a hard time taking old guys that go stiff from a KO.
the black death is upon us. Prangley is out against lawler. They got 4 days to find a replacement.

Just saw that. Who are they going to get in less than a week notice to fight Lawler?
Someone I've Heard Of +2500
No Name Scrub -4000
A few early Numbers up at matchbook on the WEC and Strikeforce bouts.
So you don't want to bet on someone because they got caught by Vitor Belfort??? I know it was a vicious knockout but I think it was just one of those hits where it caught him in the direct spot that just makes a person look like a fool for 5 minutes.
I would stay away from this fight. Jacare has average stand up at best and I definitely don't see him submitting Lindland. So if Lindland can somehow keep Jacare on his back I think he will take the fight. If not than Jacare will squeak out a decision.
Wait, I think I just talked myself into placing a bet on Lindland. He very well may get knocked out again in his career, but it wont be by Jacare.
Weigh-ins for Saturday's "Strikeforce: Evolution" event are scheduled for Friday at the San Jose Marriott in downtown San Jose, Calif.
The ceremonies, which begin at 4:30 p.m. PT local time (7:30 p.m. ET), are free and open to the public.
San Jose also hosts the following day's Showtime-televised Strikeforce event, which takes place at the HP Pavilion.
i remember Linland knocked himself out from a slam.
MMAjunkie.com has learned from sources close to the event that Strikeforce newcomer Bryan Travers (13-1) has suffered an undisclosed injury in training and has been forced out of the Dec. 19 event.
Scott Smith +295
Cung Le -365
Matt Lindland +235
Ronaldo Souza -295
Mike Whitehead +335
Muhammed Lawal -415
Gilbert Melendez +100
Josh Thomson -130
agreed
i am very intrigued with this lawal line. Im definitely going to put whitehead in some parlays. With lawal opening at -245 , the books clearly want money on this fan favorite.
And lindland at +240 right now, that right there is unreal.
A middleweight bout featuring Robbie Lawler has been scratched for Saturday’s Strikeforce “Evolution” event at the HP Pavilion in San Jose, Calif., Sherdog.com confirmed with the promotion on Wednesday.
why do you guys like gilbert so much?
i just think he's the better fighter and at + money (+113 @ PIN) i think its a good play. Thomson took him down at will in the last fight and i think Melendez will be able to keep him off him now and put some hands on him
bring Kang in to face Lawler
Thomson won their last fight decisively but I am wondering how all of this time off is going to affect him. Gilbert has had a couple of fights since then. I feel like he is more hungry also. I am going to have to watch their first fight over again and see because there could be some really good value in either one of these guys.
Where did Lawal open up at -245? I wish I could have gotten down on that. 5dimes has him at -550 right now.
