TheBarbarian_ Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 Who should UFC send over to Strikeforce for a fight to fight Luke Rockhold, Since Rockhold cant come to the UFC how about they bring the UFC to Rockhold, like Frank Mir is doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Los_Polo_Hermano Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 Who is Luke Rockhold? Is that the guy with the cool hair on 90210? He's the guy they advertise as a surfer when hyping his fights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IowaMMA Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 I liked what the UFC did with the Cormier fight and having Mir drop down for the title shot Give Mir another title bout and creates another big matchup for him. We all know Frank isnt going to be getting another title shot in the UFC. I say send down Rich Franklin to fight Rockhold. Would sell the event and give Rich another shot at a title. He isnt getting a title bout against Silva anytime soon so you dont take a contender out of the pool for the UFC MW division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct me if I'm wrong but Cormier won a Grand Prix belt. I don't think anyone can take that from him. Winner of the Grand Prix was supposed to get a shot at the title that was vacated by Alistair Overeem I believe. Rich has never lost to a middleweight in the UFC other then Anderson Silva. I wouldn't count him out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IowaMMA Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Its not techniquely a title fight but it is a defacto "title" fight since he is contractually obligated for one more fight in Strikeforce. I also agree about Ace not to count him out but when you have already been decisively beaten by the champ twice in title fights, you arent getting a title fight unless Silva is dethroned. Ace may have a good run in him left but I dont see how you can justify dropping a guy like Belcher,Boetsch,or Weidmann down to fight in Strikeforce when they are building a legitimate resume to be the #1 contender. Sonnen wouldnt be a great matchup either.Hes a cash cow, in no way do you want to risk a ticket seller like him to chance winning the strikeforce title and being obligated to fight in that organization Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UCFMRE Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 No one. Strikeforce fighters should be left to wallow in their mediocrity. They knew what they were doing when they signed those contracts, now they have to live with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
