Why would they send over one of their best guys to SF?

Well for the HW fight it's kind of different. Since it's just a 1 and done with Cormier coming to the UFC when it's over. They got Frank Mir to agree to the fight before being injured and Werdum came out and said he would accept the fight if offered. They don't have to worry about being stuck over there and it's a chance to get a win over a top 3 fighter and headline the card.

Build up a #1 contender, the winner is likely to be Cigano's next opponent.

Honestly it's the best thing that can happen for the fighters on Strikeforce' roster at this point. From cards being canceled to guys being forced to take fights with opponents nobody wants to see them fight because there's nobody else on the roster.

I agree to a point. It's going to be good for the ones that transition over but the one's that don't are left out in the cold with trying to secure somewhere else to fight with a reduction in pay. Not many opportunities out there for decent money.

Build up a #1 contender in SF? Like people pay attention to what's going on over there?

I read that Showtime removed the Nov.3rd event from it's programming. I wish they would just cancel it already so I can get my money back. I paid too much for my seats to watch a bunch of last min replacements.
