Bloody Elbow’s Michael Rome attended the post-Strikeforce press conference last night and posted his notes from the show:
–Alistair Overeem and Fabricio Werdum talked up a fight at the presser, and while it is not confirmed we could see those two fight each other as soon as June. Werdum promised to take another arm with him.
–Tito Ortiz made it very clear he wants to fight for Strikeforce. He is waiting for the UFC’s first right of refusal to expire (which it does in May), and then he would ideally return in the fall. He has just started weight training again, and trash talked Babalu a bit. He admitted he was depressed Frank lost because it was “money out the window.”
–The Gina Carano deal is almost done, and Coker wants to main event their August show with Carano v. Cyborg for a Strikeforce women’s title. No word on the weight.
–Scott Coker is open to bringing in Affliction fighters, and as of now there is no formal relationship with WAMMA.
