Mark Miller vs. Deray Davis update: Miller’s management team speaks on canceled Strikeforce fight

From a email with Mark's management at www.KOreps.com   

"He (Mark Miller) obviously wanted to fight.  I can't charge his sponsor since he didn't actually fight.  We will try and transfer most of them to his next fight.  One problem is that 2 of the sponsors were Chicago based, hopefully they will still support his next bout.

Strikeforce did pay him his 'show' money, but they still took out the 'corner man fee'."

According to various onsite media reports Miller and Davis were informed their fight was being pushed back until after the main event so that Strikeforce could insure that the Marloes Coenen vs. Roxanne Modafferi was finished prior to the CBS telecast.

Following the Fedor vs. Rogers bout the Miller-Davis was officially canceled by Strikeforce officials. For Miller and Davis this is a tough pill to swallow after putting in a full training camp for your opponent, securing sponsors, and getting amped to compete in the cage.
