Virginia MMA superstar Antwain Britt has once again allowed us to break news about his fighting career. Antwain will be making his Strikeforce debut on December 19th. The Juggernaut will be taking on kickboxer Scott Lighty. The event will air live on Showtime and feature Cung Le vs. Scott Smith and Jacare Souza vs. Matt Lindland, but Britt vs. Lighty very well could steal the show.
Antwain Britt is known for being a nasty stand up fighter. He has power in both hands and is starting to create a lengthy list of formidable opponents that he has knocked out. While this will be his Strikeforce debut, he is no stranger to fighting in big spots. Antwain busted onto the scene through the UFC’s TUF reality show but suffered a heart breaking injury in his fight to get into the house.
Since the show, Britt has defeated the likes of Carmelo Marrero and Antonio Mendes (in 8 seconds).

Good fight
Britt’s real downfall is his sub defense, but Lighty probably won’t be the one to test it. This fight should produce some fireworks for sure.
