Strikeforce may not have considerable depth in any division, but
they have enough personalities to make any given evening
interesting: Fanhouse is reporting that former WWE attraction
Bobby
Lashley is in talks with the promotion to make their Nov. 7
date on CBS.
Lashley has been stirring interest primarily for looking like an off-season Mr. Olympia and possessing credible grappling skills: his pressure positioning against Roger Gracie’s stellar submission work would be something worthwhile. And there’s obvious appeal in seeing a pro wrestling attraction take on Fedor Emelianenko: in 30-plus career fights, the Russian hasn’t spent much time in the ring with a wrestler capable of keeping him down. Maybe Lashley can.
