Hoelzer Reich may have sponsored him, and he may have been wrong to have defended him, but he’s one of those guys that is super strapped for cash, and despite his top flight skills he hasn’t been promoted enough to get the top dollar sponsorships, so when HR got lambasted, that was less $ in his pocket.
Regrettable but understandable.

Nice to see strikeforce listening to it’s audience. After the show I’m sure that’s all they were asked about. After all it’s the hardcores that watch strikeforce and they wanted to see this fight.

Strikeforce has worked with getting fights on Yahoo and Huly in the past. They are still ramping up after the EliteXC and Affliction acquisitions and settling into the Showtime/CBS deals. If they can get a key prelim fight or two online before a broadcast, it might even offer a small boost to the overall numbers.
Do you think a free fight online that people have to search for will
increase the number of viewers watching the television?
I don’t think anyone would search for the prelim aside from those who are already gonna watch the card.
He went off on Strikeforce today on MMAJunkie radio.
He’s still talking to lawyers. Not a happy dude.

I can see why it wasn’t aired. The ref needed to break them sooner. They spent the whole time against the cage. Boring…
Ubereem is here to kill the Finkelstein monster!
I had:
R1: 10-10
R2: Shaolin
R3: Beerbohm
Draw for me.
Judging is so stupid IMO, you hardly ever see 10-10 or 10-8 rounds. And you have boxing judges judging MMA… seriously wtf? It’s like having a Rugby referee refereeing American Football. The sports have some similarities but they’re completely different to judge.
