Jan. 7 2011 at the Nashville Municipal Auditorium in Nashville,TN
(Brief overview of night below)
Nunes vs Budd
The women grabbed the Strikeforce spotlight again. Overall It was a great night of fights, but I especially liked the Nunes Budd fight --go figure! Nunes was like a little pitbull pouncing with her striking --knocking out Budd just 14 seconds! However I still don't think she would size up against the champion's striking power though. If they end up fighting I don't think it will go in Nunes' favor and Cyborg will overpower her.

Champion -Cristiano Cyborg -Chute Boxe Camp
Humphrey vs Ovince Saint Preux
The Abongo Humpry /OSP fight was a good one too-- I thought Abongo was going to get the win since he pretty much set the pace--but he ended up lacking on the ground.

Cormier vs Cole
The Cormier/Cole fight was a great one too. Many of us were surpised by his stand up as well as his ground and pound too.
Woodley vs Saffiedine
Finally the main event Woodly "T- Wood" vs "Sponge" Saffiedine was impressive.Although Sponge was most active and he had a strong third round,Woodley controlled the first two rounds, and dictated the action and won the desicion.
