If strikeforce isn't going to match up fedor vs overeem right away that leaves Rogers and werdum to fight either of them. What fight is means more the shot at the title, or the shot at the legend?
Personally I would rather fight the champ first, if you beat him you'll get you shot at fedor. But if the other guy beats fedor before you that kills the mystique and potential huge payday.

the problem is that if Werdum and Rogers fight for the title shot, then fight Overeem, that will mean that Fedor will have only 1 worthy opponent therefore one good fight. I think Rogers and Werdum should Fight, the winner gets Fedor, the winner, gets Overeem (just to give one more worthy fight to Fedor) then SF can hope Bif foot gets 2 big wins (Monson and Barnett) and that will make him a good and marketable opponent for Fedor for NYE 2010. There 3 fights, then a super fight with Lensar and then he can go home.

Overeem is taking to long to fight...have them fight each other for an interim Belt and the loser gets Fedor and the winner gets Overeem.

That actually works, but I think what they'll do is match Fedor vs Overeem cause he can't be out that much longer. Then give both Werdum and Rogers weak opponents to build up future title fights.

the only way overeem will fight fedor is in japan.

Where did Overeem fight when he won the title? Has he ever tested positive for PEDs? I can tell you that if Strike Force was to move a fight in order to avoid drug testing I would be so disgusted that I would never watch another fight and I have been a strong defender of Strike Force.I want fair fights.
Back to the original question. Can you name all the guys that have won the heavy weight title in the UFC? Can you name the guy that brought down Kimbo? The guy that slays Fedor is going to be far more famous than a Strike Force belt could make them. And I wouldn't be surprised if Dana mailed a check to who ever beats Fedor first no matter what organization they are in. Not saying he will, just saying it wouldn't surprise me.
