    Anybody Excited For Strikeforce HW Tournament???

    I bought tickets for this fight next week. This might be my last chance to see mma legend, Fedor, live. Is anybody excited? I don't feel any buzz. I think Strikeforce is doing a poot job marketing their show. I have a feeling the arena will be half empty on saturday.

    Probably should take a look at the brackets again, chief. Unless you are predicting that the tournament ends after the semi-finals

    Yea. The bracket is off. The only good thing is we have less wait for fedor/ubereem.

    I'm going to wait for the weigh ins to what shape Fedor is in.

    Can't say that I'm all that thrilled about this event, seems 3-4 years past its expiration date.

    Exactly. Also means more likely to get the fight that we actually want, without renegotiations injuries etc ruining the mega fight that is Fedor vs Overeem. That is hands down the biggest fight of the entire year, and bigger than the tournament itself.

    Yea. This is why I don't feel the buzz surrounding this. I wish ubereem was fighting on this card. Arlovski/kharitonoff should be a nice stand up war with a probable brutal ending for somebody. I seen both get KTFO on many occasions. Curious the prop on that ??

    Im excited, especially because I have good seats to see event live. But I would have much rather attended 2nd half of the tourney with Overeem/Werdum, Barnett/Rodgers and it appears Melendez/Kawajiri as well.

    I feel the same way as you. Much rather see ubereem. I will be there too. I got $100 seats. I have no idea how close. I will have the blackberry with me in case I have to hedge/chase bets at 5 dimes. I can't wait.

    Pics recently surfaced from an EA promo. He appears to have lost a lot of muscle mass and has about the same body fat as he did in the Werdum fight.

    Yeah I saw those! Looked like they photoshopped his head on to weekend warrior's body. If he looks the same as that at the weigh in, or even remotely like those pictures, I'll be on Silva.

    This was a great fukkin card. Lot of energy in the building. Had a feeling I wouldn't get another chance to see Fedor live. Unreal how he got demolished. So many fukkin russians there.

    Fedor was. But he only fights once a year and is way past his prime. 5 or 6 years ago was at his prime.

    I think AO is going to take this whole thing. If he doesn't... Barnett will.

    I think Barnett is a wild card and many people are sleeping on the baby face assasin.
