This is a signup thread for the next Strikeforce event which takes place in three weeks, Saturday Jul. 30th at 7:30 PM EDT. The main event is a HW battle between Fedor Emelianenko and Dan Henderson from the Sears Centre Arena in Hoffman Estates, IL, USA.





Anybody who likes Strikeforce can sign up, even if they have not played so far. Details on how to pick are below, same format used for UFC events in CPL. Except for one thing... you send a pick for every fight on the main card, but only for two of the fights on the preliminary card.

The scheduled fights include:

MAIN CARD

* Dan Henderson vs. Fedor Emelianenko
* Marloes Coenen vs. Miesha Tate
* Tim Kennedy vs. Robbie Lawler
* Paul Daley vs. Tyron Woodley
* Tarec Saffiedine vs. Scott Smith

PRELIMINARY CARD

* Gesias Cavalcante vs. Bobby Green
* Eduardo Pamplona vs. Tyler Stinson
* Alexis Davis vs. Julie Kedzie
* Derek Brunson vs. Lumumba Sayers
* Bryan Humes vs. Gabriel Salinas-Jones
You can send picks whenever confident with the fights. The picks should only be pm'd once unless they add, drop or change a fight on the main card. The offcial card can be seen HERE. If someone signs up and fails to send their picks, they lose their matchup and won't be cleared to fight at the next event. The deadline to send picks is when the Strikeforce event begins, approx. 7:30 PM EDT in the US.

On how to pick fights:

Select the correct fighter: 10 points
Select the correct method of win: 5 points
Method includes Submission, KO/TKO and Decision.
Select the correct round of win: 3 points
If you select the fight to end by decision then you must choose either unanimous, split or majority instead of a round. If you want to predict a rare outcome such as a DQ or a draw you may do that as well. For the DQ, include the name of the winning fighter and the round it occurred, and for a draw include the type of draw the decision was (unanimous, split or majority).

In addition you can earn bonus points for EACH fight by putting the fights in order from your most confident pick to your least confident when you PM them. If there are 10 fights on the card then your most confident pick could earn you an extra 10 points if you get it correct.
The Strikeforce CPL Grand Prix is in the 2nd round at this event. The 8 members already listed below are competing at this event.

The GP moves onto the semifinals:

And Bobby the upset man will take on Bknmax the guy who doesn't talk and just wins. While on the other side of the semifinal bracket the guy who lucked past the 2nd round with the lowest winning scores you can find will get beat upside the head with karma when he takes on limba.

And congrats to pipe for being the only one to get the main event right.

^ This is the way I wanted this card to go.

To much grapplesex for me. Since when does hanging on Daleys nuts trying for a takedown win you a fight. Even when he got it there he did nothing. Defending a TD should count for more imo. On a side note Woodleys momma was hilarious, crazy ass god botherer.

I think as we are both 3-3 I should get kantowrestler next.

Ape city- We had a close one amigo :thumb02:

My two biggest fights that I 'thought' were locks I got wrong. I won lots of $$ with my buddies.

Coenen surprised me... She usually starts slow but getting subbed took me by surprise.

The Fedor fight.... i'm just upset, but also feel great for Hendo. Both warriors from PRIDE days. I thought Fedor was going to end Hendo, then Dan somehow grabbed a leg in the scramble and sent a nasty uppercut.

I'm not going to debate the subject of an early stoppage, watching it live looked like a travesty, but then re-watched a few times... still questionable but it's all good. Last big few shots definitely hit the back of Fedor's head.

I was definitely happy with this card overall.

Ya close fight man! Grats on the win!

I agree a few of the "locks" in my head ended up being losses. I was actually pretty confident in Green for some reason.

I don't really watch women's mma outside of SF so I usually end up going off odds, weigh ins, talk on this forum etc.

My biggest regret is the Fedor fight. I had a sneaky suspicion that Hendo might pull off the H-bomb but I have to admit I caved to the odds makers and my hope that Fedor could pull it off.

I do agree about the stoppage; watching it live I was screaming foul. I thought it was hella early. After watching it in slow motion many times I'm not sure it was anything less than perfect. Dan was landing huge bombs (didn't notice of they were illegal or not) and the chance of Fedor recovering from that position seemed slim to nill.

Anyways great fight man.

To the rest of you....whatcha backs!
