this sums it up nicely. strikeforce put together a card with name fighters who are still on there game, against fighters who are somewhat name fighters (scott smith mike kyle) but are name fighters for other reasons outside of great success in the cage. knockouts are fun to watch sure, but when fights are set up to be blow out brutal KOs by one guy.............they start to kinda lack imo. would of i liked more finishes last night on TUF? well yea we all like a good finish. do i want to see rampage jackson go up against seth petrazelli no i do not. thats almost a sure fire KO. and thats kinda how strikeforce was setting up there card. a top named fighter against a named fighter who isnt really top tier. you can argue the hendo vs babalu fight wasnt that case but the rest of the fights were. you can also argue the fact that with babalu's chin we all saw it coming. good card yes. it doesnt put them anywhere near the ufc.
