| Strikeforce: Cung Le beat's Von Flue in 43 seconds.
This is from Shitdog!!
"The 13-fight slate was headlined by hometown favorite Cung Le (Pictures), who was taking on The Ultimate Fighter veteran Jason Von Flue (Pictures).
The was to be the biggest test to date for the San Shou legend-turned mixed martial artist, as Le faced a serious ground threat for the first time in his short MMA career against the man known as “Live Wire.”
The possible ground battle never materialized. Le ripped open a cut above Von Flue’s left eye with a kick just seconds into the fight. The UFC veteran, who moved up in weight from 170 to 182-pounds to fight Le, immediately clinched and pulled guard.
Yet as soon as Le freed himself from Von Flue’s clutches, backed out of his guard up to his feet, referee Herb Dean (Pictures) recognized the cut and called for the ringside physician. She did not hesitate to wave off the bout, giving Cung Le (Pictures) the TKO victory at only 43 seconds of the first period."
The man seems to be running through the compitition right now. And I hear he's going to pride. I think he will be a force to be reckoned with for a long time. His stand up is arguably the best in MMA right now P4P IMO
Opinions?

IMO Lawler will knock him out.I like Cung Le but...I'll even go as far as to say the fight with Von Flue may have turned out differently had that cut not opened,but we'll never know I suppose.We will see is Cung Le is the truth when he fights someone like a Robbie Lawler.
