Tatame reports that World Victory Road is close to signing Brazilian heavyweight Antoine Jaoude, possibly to participate in a Sengoku Heavyweight Grand Prix in 2009. The former Southern California Condor hasn't fought since his December 2007 IFL title bout loss to Roy Nelson.

I was wondering what happened to Jaoude. He can wrestle if nothing else and Sengoku could probably find a decent spot for him. Jaoude vs. Bigfoot would be mildly entertaining.

![Jorge Santiago In Talks With Strikeforce:
Portal das Lutas – Are you happy in Japan?
Jorge Santiago – I’m stoked in Japan and intend to stay there a good while. I haven’t fought in the United States since 2007, but now with Pezao [Antonio Silva], who also fights in Sengoku, we now have a good opening in Strikeforce. That’s something we started talking about last week and, if all goes well, I’ll start fighting in two countries. It could be I get a shot at Strikeforce, if just because the event will let me fight in Japan too, so I’ll be able to fight the whole year.](http://cdn3.sbnation.com/fan_shot_images/80113/sf-071116-santiago_small.jpg)
!["I still don't have a definite opponent. The first name that showed up was [Kazuo] Misaki, which would be a rematch, but now they're looking for another Japanese for me to fight. I'm waiting, training for whoever shows up."
- Sengoku middleweight champ Jorge Santiago speaking to Tatame. It was thought that Santiago could face Joe Doerksen at Sengoku 11 on November 7th.](http://cdn2.sbnation.com/fan_shot_images/76381/20090105042633_200901042338_small.jpg)
