Holding wins over UFC veterans Antonio Mendes and Carmelo Marrero, middleweight Antwain Britt is looking to make a run toward STRIKEFORCE gold. The Virginia Beach native, who owns a record of 11-5, has scored nine knockout victories and seeks his tenth when he takes on grappling ace Lumumba Sayers (4-2). The wrestling and jiu-jitsu prospect has won two out of his last three fights, and has scored submissions in all four of his victories.

Fighting in his second STRIKEFORCE fight, Adlan Amagov is hoping to add another win to his already impressive record. Riding a three-fight win streak that includes a win over Ronald Stallings, the Russian middleweight intends to find the same result against Anthony Smith. The Omaha-based 23-year-old has strung together five straight wins, including a KO victory over Ben Lagman in July. Fans can expect an all-out war from these middleweights when they touch gloves in the center of the cage.

Having recently defeated Lionel Lanham in July, T.J. Cook returns to STRIKEFORCE hoping to bring the same excitement he displayed in his last fight. The Florida-based light heavyweight has finished his last four opponents and is ready to do the same to Trevor Smith. Smith defeated Keith Berry via north-south choke in June and will likely look to slap on another submission when these two meet in Las Vegas.

Sitting at three wins and no losses in her professional MMA career, Ronda Rousey is more than ready for her next opponent after easily submitting Sarah D鈥橝lelio in her STRIKEFORCE debut in August. A U.S. bronze-medalist in Judo at the Beijing Olympics, 鈥淩owdy鈥� is now making her presence felt inside the cage. She鈥檒l take on kickboxing and Muay Thai expert Julia Budd, who holds notable wins over Shana Olsen and Germaine de Randamie. The 28-year-old is looking to bring her record to three wins as well on November 18 when she meets Rousey in a featured women鈥檚 featherweight bout.

Undefeated lightweight prospect Matt Ricehouse holds notable wins in STRIKEFORCE over Ryan Couture, Tom Aaron and Greg Wilson. A Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu specialist, Ricehouse will surely look to take the fight to the ground early and end his night early. Renowned grappling wizard Bill Cooper has other ideas in mind as he himself has finished both professional fights by submission. Most recently defeating Maka Watson, Cooper will seek the early finish as well and hope for a tapout.

“Strikeforce: Overeem vs. Werdum” nets reported 7,639 attendees for $543K gate
Reported by John Morgan on Jun 19, 2011 at 1:20 am ET
DALLAS 鈥� Strikeforce’s first-ever event in Dallas drew a reported 7,639 attendees for a $543,060 live gate.

MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) learned of the figures at the post-event press conference for Saturday night’s “Strikeforce: Overeem vs. Werdum” event, which took place at American Airlines Center in Dallas.

Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker revealed the results following the event.

The numbers represent an average of $71.09 in revenue per ticket issues. The number of complimentary tickets issued was not revealed.

By comparison, Strikeforce’s Lone Star State debut, “Strikeforce: Houston,” which took place in August 2010 at Houston’s Toyota Center, drew a reported 8,635 attendees. The gate for that event was not revealed.

Strikeforce’s sister company, the Ultimate Fighting Championship, has also hosted one event at American Airlines Center. That card, “UFC 103: Franklin vs. Belfort,” scored a reported 17,428 attendees for a $2.4 million gate.

The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation does not typically verify attendance and gate figures.

The “Strikeforce: Overeem vs. Werdum” card, which saw Alistair Overeem and Josh Barnett each earn their spots in the semifinals of Strikeforce’s heavyweight grand prix, faced stiff opposition in the Dallas sporting market in the weeks prior to the event. The city’s Dallas Mavericks, who also call American Airlines Center home, claimed the NBA championship this past Sunday. The team held its victory parade on Thursday, the same day as the media workouts for “Strikeforce: Overeem vs. Werdum.”

The main event went off without a bang to say the least in last nights fight between Alistair Overeem vs. Fabricio Werdum. Werdum could not find the answer to Overeem’s take down defense and striking. Overeem dominated the night with a very boring decision victory.

Josh Barnett completely dominated Brett Rogers with smothering ground control into an easy choke for Barnett who looked solid coming back onto US soil. In a surprise of the night KJ Noons could not find any rythem for Jorge Masvidal who confused Noons with angles and control into a unanimous decision victory.

OFFICIAL MAIN CARD RESULTS

Alistair Overeem def. Fabricio Werdum via unanimous decision (29-28, 30-27, 30-27)
Josh Barnett def. Brett Rogers via submission (arm-triangle choke) – Round 2, 1:17
Jorge Masvidal def. K.J. Noons via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27)
Daniel Cormier def. Jeff Monson via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27)
Chad Griggs def. Valentijn Overeem via TKO (punches) – Round 1, 2:08
Todd Moore def. Mike Bronzoulis via unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28)

OFFICIAL PRELIMINARY CARD RESULTS

Justin Wilcox vs. Gesias “JZ” Cavalcante ruled a no-decision (accidental eyepoke by Cavalcante) – Round 2, 0:31
Conor Heun def. Magno Almeida via unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28)

The event will mark STRIKEFORCE鈥檚 debut at the Palms and the organization expects to put on several events at the fight-friendly venue throughout 2011.

鈥淭he rubber match between Voelker and Bowling will not only settle the score between the two, but it will also help determine another rising contender in the welterweight division,鈥� STRIKEFORCE CEO Scott Coker said. 鈥淭his event on July 22 is loaded with potentially explosive fights and we鈥檙e excited to kick off our relationship with the Palms with such a great card.鈥�

Kansas City鈥檚 Bobby Voelker (23-8) has proven that defeating him is no easy task, as he鈥檚 shown by winning three of his last four, including the last fight with Bowling in October. This July he鈥檒l have his sights set on Cincinnati鈥檚 Roger Bowling (9-1), who earned his nickname 鈥淩elentless鈥� thanks to scoring seven of his nine professional victories by way of stoppage. Fresh off a win over Josh Thornsburg in March, the 28-year-old now turns his attention to winning the trilogy.

Former welterweight champ Sarah Kaufman (13-1) returns for a pivotal fight that could determine the division鈥檚 next title challenger. With her only career loss coming to Marloes Coenen last year, the 25-year-old Canadian Kaufman is a tremendous finisher with 10 of her 13 wins coming by way of knockout. Former U.S. Marine Liz Carmouche (5-1) steps back into the cage for the first time since battling STRIKEFORCE women鈥檚 welterweight champion Coenen in an exciting bout last March. The aggressive striker, who currently trains in San Diego, Calif., meets Kaufman in what should be an explosive 135-pound women鈥檚 bout.

Lavar Johnson (15-4), having lost only once since August of 2008, holds wins over the likes of Shane del Rosario and Virgil Swicker. He looks to spark a run up the heavyweight ladder when he meets Team Quest product Devin Cole (18-9-1), in what will surely be an explosive matchup. Cole, a wrestling standout who won a national championship with Southern Oregon University, is 5-2 in his last seven bouts.

Since losing his first and only bout, Russian Adlan Amagov (7-1-1) has gone unbeaten in his last eight fights. On July 22, he debuts in STRIKEFORCE and looks to continue his impressive run. Currently riding a two-fight win streak, Ron Stallings (9-3) has made quick work of his opponents. With all of his wins coming by either by KO or submission, expect fireworks from the Temple Hills, Md. product in this bout.

M-1 GLOBAL ANNOUNCES M-1 CHALLENGE EVENT
TO AIR LIVE ON SHOWTIME庐

Friday, July 8, 2011 From The Hangar
At the O.C. Fair and Events Center, Costa Mesa, California
NEW YORK (June 14, 2011) 鈥� M-1 GLOBAL announced today an upcoming mixed martial arts (MMA) event titled M-1 Challenge: Bennett vs. Garner featuring the rematch between the 2010 M-1 Selection Americas Tournament heavyweight finalists Pat Bennett (4-2) and Kenny 鈥楧euce鈥� Garner (6-3). The bouts from The Hangar in Costa Mesa, California will air LIVE on SHOWTIME on Friday, July 8 at 11 p.m. ET/PT (Delayed on the West Coast).

“The rematch between Bennett and Garner has been in the works since last year; it鈥檚 a fight Pat has asked for specifically and both men are prepared to put on a show. This entire card is expected to be extremely entertaining from start to finish.鈥� said Vadim Finkelchtein, co-founder of M-1 GLOBAL. 鈥淭his will be our second event with SHOWTIME; there is no better TV network for M-1 than SHOWTIME and no better market to seriously compete in than the U.S.鈥�

Tickets are priced at $75 for the front row and all other seats at $50 and can be purchased online at www.fightcluboc.com, or by calling Roy Englebrecht Promotions at (949) 760-3131.

Kenny 鈥楧euce鈥� Garner steps in to replace the injured M-1 Global Heavyweight Champion, Guram Gugenishvili; Garner last faced Bennett in the 2010 M-1 Selection Americas tournament finals, where he won a convincing first-round TKO.

Garner is best known for his relentless self-marketing which he backs up with one-punch power as evidenced by his four knockout wins. Hidden behind the heavy leather is also a potent submission arsenal and solid wrestling base which makes this rematch a potentially explosive outing for both men.

鈥淚鈥檒l fight anyone, anytime for M-1 GLOBAL,鈥� said Garner. 鈥淚鈥檝e got to do better than what I鈥檝e done before and this is my opportunity to chase down my belt! I鈥檝e been training hard and I鈥檓 not losing to Pat Bennett; he鈥檚 not making it out of the first round.鈥�

Known for his wrestling skills, Bennett has proven to be a multidimensional mixed martial artist able to transition into a dangerous striker at will. Capable of managing larger opponents thanks to his versatile background and heavy-handed striking, this New Jersey native is primed to secure redemption against Garner.

An optimistic Bennett spoke with energy; 鈥淭his is an opportunity to avenge my loss to Kenny and it鈥檚 a fight I鈥檝e wanted badly. He鈥檚 the only one on my mind and I鈥檝e got a point to prove.鈥�
