Strikeforce HW Grand Prix

Recommended Posts

Who are you taking?

Fights kick off tomorrow night.

I would love to see "The Pitbull" take it down but I don't think he has much of a chance.

The semifinals could be the best fight if both Fedor and Overeem win their first fights, if Fedor doesn't hurt his fists on Bigfoot's cinder block head.

I have to take Overeem but don't like him much.

LOL Fedor has not fought a top 5 HW since 2004.

Overeem-L

Rodgers- W but Rodgers rocked him and Rodgers is not even a top 10.

Arlovski- W same as above and Arlovski was going through a lot of poo at the time.

Sylvia- Got KO'd 2 weeks ago in 30 seconds when Tim was a 20 to 1 fav.

Hong-Man Choi- His only MMA win in over 5 years is over Jose Canseco LOL.

Matt Lindland- Seriously way to challenge yourself Fedor.

Mark Hunt- 0-6 in his last 6 MMA Fights

Mark Coleman- He is about 82 years old.

Wagner Martins- Another hard fought win LOL

Should I continue???

I'm taking Fedor & I like watching Overeem fight, should be a good night of MMA.

It's not all in one night ;)

It's not really a tournament at all, Strikeforce basically laid out their plans and paths for fighters. No belt on the line, not in a night, pretty shady but it should be exciting as hell for them to finally get their top guys to fight each other.

I don't think Fedor stands a chance, it looks like he's smitten with Overeem.

Oh I thought this was all in one night my bad. Still gonna watch :)

The name is very misleading. They call it a tournament but basically they just said Werdum gets the next shot at Overeem then the winner of Fedor and BigFoot gets the next shot and so on.

Instead of keeping everyone waiting, they announced their plans beforehand.

Kinda weird.

Fedor wins against Bigfoot but I bet he breaks his hand. I wouldnt be surprised to see Sergei Kharitonov beat Arlovski by KO. I'm not sure why Fedor and Overeem are on the same side of the fight bracket??? Doesnt make much sense when the 2 biggest names may very well fight in the 2nd rd.

    • After Bountygate and the information that came out on the Saints owners shielding pedophile priests in New Orleans it will forever be the Saints numero uno for me. FUG THE SAINTS! I hope this is just the beginning of a long term period of suffering for that shitty organization run by even shittier human beings. #2.Pats/Belicheat #3. Falcons (Mike Vick years then Matt Ryan/Julio running it up) Ryan pooping his pants and 28-3 def makes my bad days always better just thinking of those. #4 Pretty much any franchise fan base thats obnoxious Steelers, Eagles, Bills, Jets, Giants, Cowboys, etc.
    • Thank God DM used that #8 pick on a bona fide WR1 and not some bum pass rushing prospect like Stewart or someone else. I believe Tet is legit WR1 material and going forward will be our long term answer at that position since we desperately were in need of one once they traded away DJ Moore.  Tet could possibly end up even being better long term than someone who I respect a ton as a WR in Moore. Evans has been a pleasant surprise and great TE/FB depth piece going forward who could make the most of his opportunities.  Any good offense worth a damn in the NFL has 3 TEs that can do multiple things and being scared by Ian Thomas play for years should makes us all appreciate what Evans is quietly doing as a ROOKIE at one of the hardest positions to learn at the pro level.  Keep cooking DM. This season is not over obviously but seeing some growth out of young talent finally is a breathe of fresh fuggin air for once. 
    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
