Not a bad showing at all for Strikeforce. I thought the fights were good minus the Shields/Miller fight, good grappling but Jake Shields has pillows for fists and sounds like a girl when he punches. I wasn’t a fan of the entrances either, I know they are trying to be different from the UFC but the Jason Miller entrance made me think of the WWE instantly. I also hate Frank Shamrock with his stupid keys to the cage segment and he called Mousasi Mousashi all night and he kept pronouncing Sokoudjou Soo-Koh-Joo with an emphasis on the Koh. Other than that good showing, I hope they get another show on CBS but it doesn’t sound like CBS was excited by the ratings. The Strikeforce December show is shaping up to be pretty awesome. I guess I’ve rambled enough now……..

Yeah, it was a nice showing overall. The Miller/Shields fight was dreadful, but I completely expected that to happen. Soko impressed me in his loss this time around. I really thought this was going to be a quick sub for Mousasi.
