Sources: Strikeforce targeting July 30 for Showtime-broadcast event

Multiple sources close to negotiations today told MMAjunkie.com that Strikeforce has earmarked July 30 for a major Showtime-televised event, putting on hold plans for a pay-per-view event.

However, a heavyweight superfight between Fedor Emelianenko and current Strikeforce light-heavyweight champion Dan Henderson, which has been rumored as the headliner to a potential pay-per-view card, is still in advanced negotiations and could headline the late summer event.

The Sears Centre in suburban Chicago has surfaced as one possible locale.
