As with every major show, BloodyElbow.com will be here to bring you live results and commentary for Strikeforce: Miami. The live blog will start with the beginning of the Showtime broadcast (at 10PM ET) so make sure to make Bloody Elbow your home for this event.
As always we have our one rule: NO SPOILERS! In the interest of not ruining anything from the undercard that may make the broadcast we ask that you do not discuss the results of the undercard in the comments until either the broadcast ends or the fight makes the air.
So again, join us for the show and share your thoughts as the event unfolds.
The Showtime broadcast is live! First fight up shortly
Wes Sims vs. Bobby Lashley - Round 1 - Wes Sims asks for a pro wrestling "test of strength." Left hook by Sims and now a jab. Right hand just misses for Sims and Lashley with a quick takedown. Lashley with a flurry of punches and tries for a guard pass. Sims with an armbar attempt of sorts but nothing doing other than maintaining guard. Lashley with a few more punches that land flush. Lashley is hurting him and Sims gives his back. Lashley takes it and lands several more punches and Sims flops to his belly and the ref stops the fight. Mauro says it was an early stoppage but if you go limp, the fight will be stopped. Bobby Lashley wins by TKO (strikes), round 1.
Melvin Manhoef vs. Robbie Lawler - Round 1 - Manhoef takes the center of the cage. Lawler is getting closer and closer to the cage now. Big body kick by Melvin. Head kick by Lawler is blocked. Body kick by Melvin again. Lawler is circling still and now throws a leg kick and it looked like he wanted to shoot. Leg kick by Manhoef lands hard. Manhoef lands a few punches and now another big body kick. Big leg kick by Melvin again and Lawler has to do something. A flurry of punches and kicks and Lawler is hurt. Melvis is destroying him with punches and massive leg kicks. Another leg kick and Lawler is hurting badly. Overhand right by Lawler and Manhoef goes down! Two more huge punches and Melvin is out cold! Manhoef is out! That came out of nowhere and the fight is over. Lawler is limping badly as he walks around the cage taking his victory stroll. Manhoef is just coming to on the ground now and Lawler is limping VERY badly. Robbie Lawler wins by KO, round 1.
Greg Nagy vs. Herschel Walker - Round 1 - Walker with a left handBoth men land jabs. Nagy is using side to side movement and eats a leg kick. Walker with a leg kick and avoids the takedown attempt of Nagy. Sprawl works and Walker spins to take the back. Uses it to get to mount, now half guard and he lands a flurry of punches. Nagy looking for a leg lock but Walker looks okay. Walker muscles Nagy's leg down and lands another punch. Nagy tries for a heel hook and Walker spins out of it. Now Walker has north-south. Walker traps Nagy's arm and lands a flurry of punches as the round ends. That was a high energy round and Walker is breathing with his mouth closed. 10-9 Walker on the Bloody Elbow card. Round 2 - Leg kick by Walker and Nagy looks fairly tired. Takedown from the clinch by Walker. Walker transitions to the back fairly impressively. Nagy turns and Walker has the mount. Nagy working his legs up to try and sweep but Walker's base is solid and high up on Nagy's body. Nagy stands up and has Nagy bent over. The crowd screams for Herschel to throw a knee and he obliges. Nagy just can't take him down. Again Walker takes the back. The round ends with Wilker landing some punches and again, walks to his corner breathing through his nose. His cardio is sickeningly amazing. 10-9 Walker again. Round 3- Nagy throws a right hand and then just pulls guard. Armbar attempt by Nagy, but Walker avoids well. Herschel gets to full mount again. Nagy gives the back again and Walker starts to land punches to Nagy's body and as Nagy isn't even attempting to do anything the ref is forced to stop the fight. Herschel Walker wins by TKO (strikes), round 3.
Cris "Cyborg" Santos vs. Marloes Coenen - Round 1 - They charge into a clinch with both fighters throwing knees. Coenen just misses with a strike and now lands a right hand. Cyborg reestablishes the clinch and gets the takedown. Marloes gets full guard. Coenen almost locks an armbar attempt by Cyborg avoids and lands a right hand. Cyborg wants to stand back up and Coenen lands a right hand but Cyborg is landing bigger shots in exchange. Leg kick by Cyborg lands hard. Coenen with double underhooks against the cage but can't finish the takedown attempt. Footstomps by Coenen and she's willing to be nasty. Elbow lands hard for Coenen as does an uppercut. Competitive round but 10-9 for the champion on our card. Round 2 - Cyborg knocks Coenen down but it seemed as much from lack of balance than a knockdown. Cyborg landing a few strikes from the top and Marloes regains guard. Coenen working her legs up high but Cyborg's strength is serving her well to avoid submissions so far. Cyborg stands back up and they're on the feet again. Left hand lands for Cyborg now. Cyborg is landing a lot more frequently now. Coenen can't finish a takedown attempt and ends up on her back. Coenen looks for a triangle and Cyborg slams out of it again. Santos posturing up and landing punches now. 10-9 Cyborg again as the round ends. Round 3 - Coenen driving for a takedown, pushing Cyborg all over the cage but can't finish before pinning her back against the cage. Cyborg is just able to avoid any damage from Coenen at this point and is now on top on the ground working over Coenen's body. Big right hands by Cyborg and they go back to standing. Huge right hand by Coenen and Cyborg takes it without even blinking. Now back to the ground and Cyborg is unloading. Coenen isn't defending herself and finally the ref has to stop the fight. Cris "Cyborg" Santos wins by TKO (strikes), round 3.
Marius Zaromskis vs. Nick Diaz - Round 1 - Marius runs forward and throws a jumping body kick and is landing multiple punches. Diaz lands a few and Marius is hurt. Zaromskis lands a good knee and Diaz reaches for the takedown. Dias throwing knees to the thigh from the clinch. Zaromskis isn't doing anything to avoid the knees to the leg. They separate after a takedown attempt and Diaz is landing. Zaromskis lands a big shot and Diaz is hurt. Zaromskis is on top on the ground now and Diaz is bleeding. Back to standing and Diaz catches a kick from Marius. Both men continue to land hard punches. Diaz landing the better punches from range now. Body kick by Marius. Diaz landing hard now. Body shots by Diaz are hurting him. Diaz is beating upm up badly now. Right hand by Diaz and Zaromskis goes down and the fight is over. What a round. Nick Diaz wins by KO (punch), round 1.

Anyone have any idea how much weight that “Cyborg” cuts, and then how much she weighs come fight time?
Did you see the size of that chicken?
If I remember correctly
She was walking around at 160lb – 170lb before the Akano fight

Nice catch. I just read Deo’s comment and thought “man, that was a dick thing to say”. My bad, Deo, no pun was intended. I was actually thinking about writing a piece about how the male champions and their physique’s are often put on a pedestal to be admired, however Chris Cyborg is over-looked for whatever reason.

Tis cool
The double standard is ridiculous. I wrote a piece about it a while back, but I suck at writing lol.

This looks a little like the GSP/BJ Penn face off from last year. Cyborg is obviously gonna put back on some pounds whereas Marloes is looking pretty natural.

That GSP/BJ stare down was awesome. This one is just as good. I can’t wait!

Conen is a natural 145 fighter, I think, just from lookig at her height and body type. Cyborg is just the women’s 145 version of Thiago Alves in terms of how much weight she can cut and still be effective, and that her style is largely designed around generally being bigger and stronger than her opponents.
"I'm AJB and I endorse this nut-puncher."
Coenen looked real smooth with her hands in the video BE had up a couple days ago. She looked polished and seems ready for this fight. Coenen by 2nd rd tko
I do NOT follow woman’s mma much, have only seen cyborgs fights here in the states, never have seen coenen fight, but I was just really impressed with marlos’ hands, if she can withstand the initial santos onslaught, I really see coenen winning.(most amateur of amateur opinion)
I don’t think Coenen will TKO Cyborg. If anything, she’d submit her. All but a handful of her wins are by submission. If it stays standing, it could get a bit rough considering Cyborg’s brawling abilities.

correction
have seen coenen fight on youtube, but not great quality, hard to really form an opinion of her based on what I saw.
Oooo
Okay I’m going to get shit for this…but I still find Cyborg a bit hot. Her in the bikini = an 8.
No, not an 8
Not close, but I did find myself thinking “I’d hit it.” But I was also really drunk when I watched the weigh-ins last night, soooo…

The video is just supposed to pop up on the main page and play? or do I have to create some type of account?
Once the app loads
It makes you register with easports, which you can just as soon unsubscribe from. And it did take me a few loads to get it to work— seems like an unreliable video player.

Walker Rd 1 TKO

Honestly now,
Do you think Cyborg is the Chyna of MMA? …The WWE Chyna who used to date Triple H. Now correct me if I’m wrong, isn’t Cyborg suppose to do a full spread or something like that for Playboy magazine? Personally, I’d buy it because I’m curious to see what she’s working with. However, how much more awesome would an issue of Playboy with Gina Carano plastered on the cover be? ..I know, Gina has said she wouldn’t do Playboy. We all can dream.
As far as my picks are concerned:
Diaz by decision
Cyborg Round 2 via TKO — brutality
Manhoef Round 1 via TKO — head removal; Sub-Zero style
Lashley Round 1 via TKO — GNP
Walker Round 2 TKO; GNP — early stoppage on behalf of the ref

Clearly Dana White is sabotaging the stream.
Brian Russell would bite on play-action despite the QB being in an empty backfield.
Jay Hieron vs. Joe Riggs
Round 1
Riggs paws with his jab while Hieron circles looking for an opening as the middleweight contender match gets underway. Hieron leaps in with a nice right hand that Riggs takes well before changing levels for a takedown. Hieron retreats and they reset in the middle of the cage. Hieron lands another lead right hand. Hieron with a two-punch combination punctuated with a spinning back-kick that lands to Riggs shoulder. Riggs moving forward now but it is Hieron landing most of the meaningful shots. Riggs throws a superman punch but Hieron ducks under and takes him to the ground with a body-lock. There is zero action on the ground before the round closes. Jay Hieron takes the first round 10-9 on the Sherdog.com scorecard.
10-9 Hieron
Lots of feeling each other out (some boo’s). Hieron with more and better striking and a takedown towards the end to seal the round.

Round 2
Riggs, from his southpaw stance, continues to push forward as the second period gets started. He has only thrown single shots up to this point while Hieron has been throwing more shots in bunches. Hieron takes the fight back to the floor early in the round and settles into Riggs’ guard. Hieron pounds away, unabated, at the body of Riggs with right hands until his opponent ties him up. Apparently the crowd is not pleased with the tactical fight that is being waged and they shower the cage with boos. Hieron finally lands a good shot from the top and the crowd briefly stirs. Riggs walks up the cage to get back to his feet as the 10 second warning sounds and the round closes with the fighters clinched along the cage. Sherdog.com deposits another round in Hieron’s bank, 10-9.
Strikeforce better be putting on one hell of a CBS show.

By the time it got to the point of trying to get me to sign up for a crappy newsletter the fight was almost over and I didn’t even get to see any of the fight.
Round 3
Riggs’ trainer Trevor Lally implores him to attack Hieron who he claims is tiring as he emerges from his corner to start the third frame. Riggs answers his pleas with a bruising right hook that hurts Hieron. A wobbly Hieron answered back with a takedown and some ground and pound. Referee Frank Gentile deems there is a dearth of action and returns the fighters to the standing position. Hieron is sporting some blood around his left eye, possibly from the earlier punch. Riggs walks right into a short left hook that puts him down. Hieron pounces and tries to finish but Riggs survives to the end of the round. Sherdog.com scores the final round 10-9 and the fight 30-27 for Jay Hieron.
Official scores are 29-28 and 30-27 (twice) for Jay Hieron.
Well, the stream was a unique way of turning a 3 rounder into a 5 rounder.

I just want to say holy crap, that was one of the most amazing displays of gameness ever by Lawler. Like he said afterwards, he watched tape on Manhoef and knew what to expect, but to actually have the balls to try that gameplan is something else. Watching him move laterally covering up, I was in disbelief that he could pull it off, but then I saw him moving forward with his guard up smiling.
A lot of people are going to read that as a flukey win over a superior striker, but in reality it was one of the best ever boxing performances in MMA

I agree that Lawler is game, but to say “I was waiting for him to try and finish me to finish him”; you gotta hope that wasn’t his plan coming in. There’s only a very small window of opportunity for something like that.
It was his plan, and it worked. Don’t get me wrong, he didn’t intend to get his lead leg knocked out from under him 20 times, but clearly he was waiting for Manhoef to release his hand combinations and do a little peekaboo action. It was absolutely a risky gameplan, but apparently it was also the right one
I have a hard time calling it one of the best boxing performances ever when Melvin was making Lawler kick himself in the head with leg kicks.

this is a huuuuge step backwards for Strikeforce
