Strikeforce in its very last breath goes out with a bang. Strikeforce presents "A Farewell To Arms"
Since 2006 Strikeforce has been entertaining the public with Mixed Martial Arts and now after the signing with ZUFFA, as of January 12th, 2013, Strikeforce shall be no more.
The Current Strikeforce Welterweight Champion Nate "The Great" Marquardt shall defend is title against contender Tarec "Sponge" Saffiedine in the last Title Match in Strikeforce history.
For being a Non-UFC card this event is very stacked with other big named fighters. Other than the current SF Champion and former UFC title challenger Marquardt the card also includes, Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand Prix Winner Daniel "DC" Cormier, PRIDE FC Grand Prix Finalist Josh "The Warmaster" Barnett, BJJ Elite Jacare Souza, Dream Middleweight Grand Prix and former Strikeforce Light Heavyweight Champion Gegard Mousasi, Former US Army Ranger Tim Kennedy, and much much more.

Its sad to see Strikeforce close the doors but It will be great to yet again see that fighters in the UFC arent the best fighters. First the WEC and now it will be Strikeforce.

Now, we will get to see Gilbert Melendez, Josh Thomson, Luke Rockhold and many others come over. I'm especially interested in how the UFC presents the women fighters. Let's all hope they put all their marketing muscle behind them. And not just a luke-warm half-effort.

Does she sound like I need to defend her? Nope. I just don't like people ganging up on an underdog.

Why does everyone go ****** on me and make me look like a damned fool to the Mods? You guys should know that I'm too lazy to look up **** on every single thing. I'm not a detail guy.
