| fucking awesome baby YORK (July 27, 2009)--The highly-anticipated showdown between Renato "Babalu" Sobral (35-  and Gegard Mousasi (25-2-1), which was suddenly cancelled by its original promoter last week, has been revitalized and will be contested with Sobral's STRIKEFORCE World Light Heavyweight (205 pounds) Championship on the line at San Jose, California's HP Pavilion on Saturday, August 15. The title bout will be featured during the SHOWTIME televised portion of the STRIKEFORCE: "Carano vs. Cyborg" mixed martial arts (MMA) mega-card. "I am very happy that STRIKEFORCE has resurrected this fight and that I will have the opportunity to become STRIKEFORCE world champion," said Mousasi, who is in the midst of a monstrous, 12 fight win streak. The 23-year-old was crowned the first Dream Middleweight Champion and Middleweight Grand Prix Tournament Champion last year in Japan. "STRIKEFORCE is one of the world's top promotions and I am proud to be a part of their roster of world-class fighters," he said. | |

| I'm wondering if this is a sign of things to come. Mousasi and Fedor are very very close. I'd rather see him in the UFC but Strikeforce would certainly be better than nothing. There would be at least a few interesting match ups if nothing else. It's fucking awesome that strikeforce is pulling through on this. now they should get vitor vs santiago on this card. | |

| I wonder how different this fight will be in a cage vs a ring. Mousasi ever fought in a cage before. | |

Good point the cage favors wrestlers and we know babalu is a world class grappler. | |
