Cyborg Fakes Pregnancy, Hilarity Ensues.

So what's the worst thing that could possible happen to a cursed card?

The Strikeforce promoter is usually calm and cool under the worst of circumstances, and the weeks leading up to the show featured plenty of them, as several matches had to be rearranged for various reasons. But he thought he had a nightmare scenario on his hands the night before the show.

At about 9:30 p.m. on Friday night, on a show where every major match but the main event fell apart, Coker got a phone call from the Santos camp. They were apologetic, saying that they had no idea beforehand, but that when the commission was testing Santos, they found out that she was pregnant and the fight was off.

Coker fell for it … though later he was told it was a prank. Good thing for Coker – and for Santos.

Chute Box just knocked four years off Scott Coker's life with that gem.

That's awesome!

Wonder how long they waited until they told him it was a joke :)

They probably told him when they heard him faint.

Keep firing Assholes!

Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead.
