Quick Tidbits:
1) Thales Leites is rumored to have signed with MFC.
2) Whitemare vs Tamura @ DREAM.12 for the WW belt in the cage.
3) Hornbuckle will fight for Sengoku WW Title.
4) Microsoft rumored to purchase EA Sports. Actually, Microsoft just issued a statement saying it has no such plans.
5) EA or Time Warner may be rumored to purchase THQ.
6) Season 1 of Bellator is being shown on Canada on "The Score".
7) There are rumors that Nobuyuki Sakakibara (head of now deceased DSE/PRIDE) was present at Sengoku. Anyone want to confirm?
8) The White Cage for DREAM.12 is confirmed. DREAM Channel on YouTube is just great. http://www.youtube.com/user/DREAM
9) Sengoku's new name will be Sengoku Raiden Championship, SRC. "Raiden" translates to thunder and lightning, but Sengoku has another meaning.
"Raiden is a legendary man from 220 years ago," World Victory Road General Director Takahiro Kokuho said, citing the iconic Edo period sumo wrestler. "We want to look to him and find the next Raiden, the next legend for this century."
10) Herschel Walker will give his Strikeforce pay to charity. Doing it for the love of the sport and competition.
11) Bas Boon says as long as they get paid, they see no problem with Fedor fighting Overeem or any other Golden Glory member.
"Please understand that I am always in favor of and willing to support the initiative of meeting Allistara or any other fighter out of Golden Glory with Fedor in any place at any time, provided that the amount of money agreed upon and guaranteed.
12) Tim Sylvia was supposed to fight on the DREAM.12 special event in the cage against rumored HW, Alistair Overeem. Sylvia will now try to make the NYE show or fight for Sengoku.

13) Strikeforce confirms Sears Centre in Chicago for Fedor vs Rogers CBS show via MMAWeekly.
14) Kevin Randleman and Nick Thompson are now confirmed/rumored for EA Sports MMA.
15) Rumor is that EA Sports may be in talks with Rampage to be included in EA Sports MMA. I will definitely have to hear more about this...
16) Kerry Vera vs Kim Couture in the works for November event in Strikeforce. Think about that one for a minute. I actually like the female matchup better than the males, since it seems like it will be an exciting match.

Thats what I hear. According to the DREAM promo, everyone has different weight classes and everything. I dunno, LOL. Either everyone is changing weight classes or the promo vid wasn’t exactly correct, but thats what I hear.

wow you're basing it on the Promo alone?
WTF Sup.. this is amateur stuff.
The vid had three WWs there. Nakahara Zaromskis and Tamura. you didn’t “hear” that?

Huh?
I think you misunderstood.
1) I have heard of Tamura vs Whitemare for the WW title (this has nothing to do with the promo).
2) The Promo vid had a lot of weights that were off from where those fighters usually fight, like Tamura, Nakahara, etc, but we don’t know whether those fighters actually dropped a weight class or the promo is just wrong.

and what about linking those that didn't come from you?
cause not doing that is really frowned upon…

Tickets for the event go on sale Monday, Sept. 23 at Ticketmaster.com, Strikeforce.com, and the Sears Centre box office.
Today is Sept. 23 and it’s not a Monday.
Walla walla walla I'm an idiot.
Yeah, it was a typo on MMAWeekly. Meant 28th (upcoming Monday).
The presale is the 25th, this Friday.

You must be joking.

This fight will be exciting, guaranteed. I cannot say the same about the other. Is it that hard to imagine, really?

Am I the only one who would have preferred Randy fighting someone else?

Preferring another opponet for Randy is one thing. These ladies have 3 MMA fights combined. I wouldn’t even call Kim Couture a fighter.

But if you’ve seen their fights, you would know they go all out and produce exciting fights.

Don’t think there is much to hear. Rampage’s contract still exists with the UFC and I doubt that his didn’t have the likeness stuff built in. Just because he “quit” fighting doesn’t mean he can suddenly do whatever he wants in the MMA world

I know, but I heard the rumor, so I will be keeping my ears open.
He can surely try to do whatever he wants to piss people off though.
