Hope its Diaz vs. Mayhem.

Lindland vs Rockhold will be interesting.

I'm on Rockhold if he comes in as a dog.

Chad Griggs vs. Brett Rogers will be fighting soon. Not sure if its this card or a later one

I was wondering who they would have Rogers fight next to make him relevant again.

Re: Strikeforce October 9th

Rogers by murder. Oh, god, to get a good line on this one. . .

Final card:
Diaz/Noons
Thomson/Cavalacante
Kaufman/Coenen
Woodley/Galvao


Lines aren't out yet though but I figure we should start discussing since it's Saturday. I just watched Noons/Diaz 1.. I guess the question is how much has KJ Noons' TDD improved along with Diaz's TDs since then? Noons stuffed all but one takedown (he got back to his feet easy) with ease and Diaz's TDs looked pretty shitty. Noons was lighting Diaz up on the feet as well. I don't anything about Cavalacante. I am leaning towards Woodley but I have to watch some fights first.

Re: Strikeforce October 9th

Considering Diaz is so in love with his boxing, I'm not sure that takedowns are even going to be an issue. But who knows what his gameplan will be.

Re: Strikeforce October 9th

Ill probably be on Diaz here myself.

Re: Strikeforce October 9th

I see no reason why Noons won't beat him again. Noons SHOULD be the better boxer, which seems to be the key for beating Diaz. That said, something tells me Diaz is going to punk him.

I think Thomson sprawls his way to a win.

Galvao by sub in the first, or he loses a decision. I might make a prop bet there, rd1 sub or decision...

Line's up!

Re: Strikeforce October 9th

I am gonna sit on it, I think Noons will go higher. The line looks about right to me.

Yeah, I don't have a choice since Diego killed my 5dimes account and I've never resurrected it. But I do hope KJ goes higher. I will be on him even at the current line though, provided we don't get a surprise and money comes in on him.

Re: Strikeforce October 9th

Line is dropping, Noons is now +115.

Re: Strikeforce October 9th

Im really not that impressed with Nick Diaz. I think Nate is a lot better. I haven't seen a lot of Nick's fights but what I have seen was unimpressive and his record is not that great.

KJ's record is a bit wierd. He is an on and off fighter. Does he take time off to box or what? This will be his fourth fight in 2010 though. So we know he is "on track".

What makes you think Nick will beat him this time Scientist?
