Wandy cuts the ring off and KO's Bisping just like Hendo did, horrible matchup for Bisping, he'll lose again..
Bummer...
Joe "Diesel" Riggs will not fight Nick Diaz for the first-ever Strikeforce welterweight le at "Carano vs. Cyborg" on Aug. 15 in San Jose, Calif.
Strikeforce Director of Communications Mike Afromowitz confirmed the news to MMAWeekly.com Friday morning.
Word of the change first appeared Thursday night on graciefighter.com, a website owned and operated by Diaz's manager Cesar Gracie.
The report indicated that Riggs had withdrawn from the fight when he had an adverse reaction to a prescription medication, prompting a hospital stay that could be weeks long.
Afromowitz was unaware of Rigg's condition and was still trying to contact the fighter.
The fight was the second le match on the Aug. 15 event to encounter problems. Alistair Overeem, who in June canceled a scheduled le defense when he injured his hand in a nightclub brawl, bowed out of a second le booking against Fabricio Werdum when he was unable to recover from the injury. Strikeforce officials are currently looking for a replacement.
Riggs defeated Diaz at UFC 57 in February 2006, and later brawled with the Stockton native at a Las Vegas area hospital. Bad blood has remained since.
Afromowitz said the search was on to replace Riggs, but gave no names of fighters under consideration.
There are now two le fights remaining on the card. In the evening's headliner, Gina Carano will take on Cristiane "Cyborg" Santos for the first ever Strikeforce women's 145-pound le, and Gilbert Melendez will rematch lightweight champion Josh Thomson.
Nothing seems to be going right if your not the UFC.
well this sucks...
translation = rehab for pain pills, again.
Very freaky..
jesus christ what kind of meds do you have to take that gives you an adverse reaction that keeps you in the hospital for weeks?...............n/m just saw what evan wrote...makes sense now
overall, this sucks for the card which was setting up to be a pretty damn good one. hopefully they can get a decent replacement.
I tried jumping out of a pool today. I couldnt even get my knees above the water.
This dude snoring is
Negotiations are underway with Jay Hieron, since Affliction F'd him...
Hieron vs Diaz would be a killer matchup...
Excellent save fight!
Scott Coker once again showing he knows how to run a proper MMA show.
Paul Daley is also throwing his name in the hopper...

My bad if I don’t watch all the fights out there. I apologize for not knowing a lot of you up & coming fighters. I noticed that I met some of you guys in the past & I didn’t recognize who you are.. but honestly I don’t watch fighting that much. I don’t want people to take it the wrong way but I wasn’t a fan of the sport before I started fighting.
Now this punk ass dude named King Mo is all butthurt because I don’t know who the he is. Straight up, if you’re not one of my friends or fighting one of my friends, or a potential later opponent.. I might not get a chance to watch your fight. So… I didn’t know who the King Mo was & now he crying like a little girl saying that he met me a long time ago when I was fighting at KOTC & he said I shined him cause I was talking to four people when he introduced himself. Now this guy running his mouth, but if I was him I would shut the up cause he seriously don’t want none.
People straight up.. if you guys ever bump into me, treat me as a normal guy or the way you would like to be treated. If I’m talking to people, or in the club dancing with a hot chick, or with my kids, or eating, or in the restroom with my in my hand pissing… it’s probably a bad time to talk to me or ask for a picture. Other than that, you’ll see I’m just like everybody else & I like to be treated like that. & if you’re a up & coming fighter, don’t assume that I know you or seen you fight. Let me know that you’re a fighter so we won’t have the same problems like King Mo over here. Cause King Mo would be half cool if he didn’t have those gay ass nipple rings & didn’t talk so much!!
King Mo last night on the UG

Would be huge !
Waiting for that press conference!
Probably there will be a Fedor question.
"Ben Rothwell and Chase Gormley will make their Octagon debuts in a heavyweight bout at UFC 104 on Oct. 24 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, according to a source with knowledge of the negotiations.
The matchup had originally been scheduled to take place at Affliction “Trilogy” on Aug. 1. However, Affliction Entertainment cancelled its anticipated third event 10 days out, after main event fighter Josh Barnett tested positive for an anabolic steroid in a pre-fight test."
Good for those guys...hopefully all of the Affliction guys get picked up somewhere soon...
