For Antonio Silva, Strikeforce tourney starts and ends with Fedor Emelianenko

Fedor Emelianenko is the title, tournament, and big fish all wrapped into one, says Antonio "Bigfoot" Silva.

He's not even remotely concerned about what comes next.

Some look at Silva as a mere placeholder for the Russian's advance in the Strikeforce heavyweight grand prix. "Bigfoot" says they're about to get a big surprise, just like they did this past summer.

Nice, respectful Nick Diaz ready for 'Cyborg'

At the Strikeforce press conference, Nick Diaz spoke about Evangelista "Cyborg" Santos, the man who will try to take away his Strikeforce welterweight championship belt on Saturday. Diaz, the man who perfected the finger-in-your-face staredown, spoke with respect.

"I feel good and I’m ready to fight. Cyborg has a unique style and I know that he will give it his all and be as crazy as ever. But that’s good because I’m crazy, too," Diaz said. I have great respect for Cyborg. He is strong and has skills and comes real hard. I feel he deserves a shot."

Cyborg returned the respect.

“Nick Diaz is a very gallant fighter but I will press the action whether we are standing or on the ground," Cyborg said.

Gallant! I can think of no better word to describe Diaz.

If you like four fights in an half and half and then an hour of Showtime re-running not Dexter in the Strikeforce timeslot, you probably liked but were a bit disappointed with the first major Strikeforce event [...]
