With the Strikeforce event coming to a close we have yet another weeks worth of talking to do over another middleweight title fight. After surviving a gauntlet of a first round Jake Shields went on to out grapple the former Pride Champion and UFC vet Dan Henderson and retain his title.

And then things got interesting, Jason “Mayhem” Miller lived up to his nickname by interrupting Shields post victory speech to ask a seemingly simple question.

“Where’s my rematch, buddy?!”

Jakes teammates from Ceasar Gracies bjj academy were not amused by Millers scene stealing and promptly swarmed and attacked the lone middleweight. In a night with 3 title fights that went the distance, this debacle stole the show. And while I personally am a huge fan of Nick Diaz I can totally see why such a short tempered man is not in the UFC anymore.

With King Mo wrestling his way to the title and Gilbert Melendez beating the crap out of Japans top lightweight and retaining his title. The show was a tepid one at best to say the least but had its entertaining moments here and there.

Look at it this way, at least it made Dana White happy. And just like Anderson Silvas last performance it has given the mma blogesphere a huge chunk of material to bump our gums over.

I will spare you with the excuses for such a late post and just get straight to the pics.

Lightweight Title

Shinya Aoki (Dream LW Champ) vs. Gilbert Milendez (Strikeforce LW Champ)

While Aoki’s bjj is a loaded gun I see him loosing his will to fight once he gets punched in the face a couple times.

- Milendez via TKO

Middleweight Title

Jake Shields (Strikeforce Champ) vs. Dan Henderson

I can only see the talented getting overpowered and outwresteled by the legendary mma vet, Hendo can be submitted but I see him keeping it standing and just beating Jake up and taking his belt.

Light Heavyweight Title

Gegard Mousasi (Strikeforce Champ) vs King Mo (challenger)

The event has already started and they already are cutting to commercial over showing Mo’s entrance. A crime in and of itself. That being said entrance or not, Mo is going to pull off the biggest upset of the night. I am noticing a huge prediliction towards wrestlers on this card, but I calls ‘em like I see ‘em. Mousasi can totally win this with his superior striking and dangerous guard game. But I see this being a replay of Cerrone Henderson or Marquard vs Sonnen. Gegard is dope but King Mo is the future.
