The news that Strikeforce's main matchmaker Rich Chou was dismissed from the company has been out for a few days now, but a clearer picture of the situation emerged today. Along with Chou, Bob Cook has apparently been released as well, and the new matchmaker for Strikeforce will be former WEC matchmaker Sean Shelby. MMAWeekly has it:

Doubtful^

But Chou was decent and put together some good fights, just not in timely fashion.

Check Scoot Cokers title on the summit agenda from yesterday. He has already been stripped of CEO.

What did anyone expect? I mean, once they got bought, you knew Zuffa was going to take a closer look at the day-to-day operations and make the changes needed to make it run smoother. The biggest problem with SF over the years was the animals pushing around the zookeeper, you should have known that Lorenzo wasn't going to let that shit happen.

On the other board i liked this thought over the coker situation............It's really hard to say how this should be precieved. I dont really know how Strikeforce is held by Zuffa. An EVP and a President of a division arent very different. Just imagine being president ofa software company that was bought out be microsoft and then you were made an evp at microsoft. In that situation its actually a step up. I wouldnt read much into it until you hear that someone like coker has been cut. and you can bet that coker didnt take a cut in pay and has a pretty solid golden parachute

Coker wasn't the CEO after Zuffa purchased SF anyways. He was only the CEO before the purchase and was named GM and VP of the company. He hasn't been demoted in any way. Coker is someone Zuffa needs on their side and is a key figure to get UFC into the Asian market.
