Dan Henderson, Paul "Semtex" Daley, and "Ruthless" Robbie Lawler all had exciting knockouts of their opponents (Renato "Babalu" Sobral, Scott "Hands of Stone" Smith, and Matt Lindland respectively). All six fighters competed in the UFC and other fight competitions in the past. Daley was recently released by the UFC for an illegal punch to Josh Koscheck's head after their fight. There is no doubt that UFC President Dana White is assessing the Strikeforce's fights and ratings last night to compare to the UFC fights shown on Spike TV, also last night. White has announced the UFC is in negotiation to be shown on TV in 2011 in a billion homes.
Legendary MMA superstar Dan Henderson, 41, proved he is back yesterday as he closed an outstanding night of exciting, non-stop action fights by demolishing former STRIKEFORCE World Champion Renato “Babalu” Sobral in 1:53 in the main event on SHOWTIME® before a crowd of 7,146 at Scottrade Center.
