On other MMA news, Zuffa, the company set up by UFC owners, now also owns Strikeforce! having bought them this week. This leads to possibilties of cross promotion matches including Fedor, Jacare Souza, Mousasi and Nick Diaz.

[Moorsey]

I seen that about Strikeforce. Dana said they won't be doing cross promotion, but you know down the line he will throw Fedor against Brock or something.

p.s Didn't Nick Diaz fight for UFC a while back, and didn't his brother Nate go on Ultimate fighter years ago?

[EFC]

Yeah, Nick Diaz got fired.

They say cross promotion won't happen, but you know it will. Problem is the deal Strikeforce has with Showtime regarding their ppv's.

Don't forget that M1 Global actually own Fedor's contract, not Strikeforce.
