Yeah, I watched the fight again after I replied, and I saw the omoplata attempt. I skimmed through the fight the first time. Sorry, no biggie.

No worries but he got it and then just gave it up.

Swick is out of 103 for his fight with Kampmann.

This sucks, I was really looking forward to that fight. I wonder if they'll add another fight to that card now. People were already questioning it.

aww, man. that blows. Too bad for him and the fans. It's not the greatest card, but it has a lot of intriguing fights and top-ten ranked fighters. I'm looking forward to it.

I'm really pissed off with strikeforce. They managed to sign Fedor (i'm still trying to pull my jaw up from the dropped position on this one) and they can't even get the date finalized for when this will actually happen. now there are doubts it will happen, just proving what a joke of a league strikeforce really is. it seems they cater more to gina carano than they do to fedor as far as giving fans the spotlight on the fights they want to see

but she just got her *** stomped. she's just a pretty face that for the moment is second in command in ladies MMA.

i'm not saying i think gina carano is good or bad. i'm just saying that the fact they scored signing fedor and they don't capitalize on that is poor business. i know carano just got stomped. and what happens? you hear about carano and not cyborg. carano is popular b/c of looks and not her mma abilities. its a joke that the focus in strikeforce is gimmick and not mma

Strikeforce sucks. I love watching Fedor fight but unfortunately time will catch up with him too. Strikeforce will take their time and if he ever has a chance at going in the ufc it may be well past his prime.

but then the UFC would LOVE that b/c they could say that he was never as good as people said and that they can use an up and commer to kick his butt. He needs to get to the UFC now to stop his huge fighting delays and to either shut up the UFC b/c they don't think he's that great or to shut up the Fedor followers that think he can't be beat.
