Thankfully yes. Strikeforce has been around longer than just the recent mma shows and has always been a bay area promotion as long as I can remember.

Yes, but their next show is in Washington state.

It's their first show outside of San Jose.

I read in Fighters Only magazine that Strikeforce should be announcing European and North American TV deals in early-mid 2008.

They've already had an event at the playboy mansion, struck a deal with Yahoo, done a co-event with Elite XC and have another planned for March. They seem to be going places. 2008 may be a huge year for them.

Maybe Cung Le vs. Frank Shamrock was the missing piece of the puzzle they needed to get on network TV? The huge main event. Both will fight if the money is right. This could turn out to be true.

I'm very interested to see how this pans out.

Buentello vs. Tank was actually in Fresno.

Didn't know about the Fresno fight, but forgot about the Playboy Mansion show.

I cannot believe they went to Fresno. Seems like a strange place to hold an MMA event. Did anyone go and how full was the place?
