Saturday night Yahoo Sports is live streaming (free) the Strikeforce card at the Playboy Mansion. Starts at 11:00 central time. I hope their stream is setup to handle the traffic...

Strikeforce Playboy Mansion: SEPTEMBER 29, 2007
- Gilbert Melendez (#3 LW) vs. Tetsuji Kato
- Josh Thomson vs. Adam Lynn
- Joe Riggs vs. Eugene Jackson
- Jorge Masvidal vs Matt Lee
- Daniel Puder vs. Richard Dalton
- Bobby Southworth vs. Bill Mahood
- Billy Evangelista vs. Anthony Njokuani
Melendez should be in the UFC...without question one of the top LW's in the world.
Josh Thomson is a solid LW that has been hidden away in Strikeforce for a little while. Quality wins over Hermes Franca, Razor Rob, and Bang Ludwig, with his only 2 losses being to Clay Guida and Yves Edwards.
Everybody knows who Joe Riggs is...and Southworth.
Njokuani fought on the last Art of War card...explosive striker.
Masvidal is the LW that is best known for his 2 street fights with Kimbo's 205 lb fighter...he beat him up both times they fought. He distances from that now. He's a fun guy to watch...he KO'd Yves Edwards in his last fight (Bodog).
Here are those 2 street fights if you care to check them out...I like them because it's funny seeing a trained lightweight wear out a "badass" street fighter that's 40 lbs heavier...
