Who is next for the Strikeforce LHW Champion :?: I cannot think of a single LHW worthy of a shot at his belt.

In true SF fashion, the answer should be obvious.
A rematch with Gegard Mousasi.
However, even with 2 less than stellar wins and a beat down by Mike Kyle, i'd imagine somehow Feijao will get the next shot. :|

True, and Kyle is coming off a win against Tony "Kryptonite" Lopez

Who knows maybe they will have Dan Henderson move up in weight and take on King MO

That was my first thought, but it's a hard sell when Hendo just got outgrappled by a 170 pounder.
Still, would be a fight i'd like to see.
Although Hendo vs. Mousasi would sound just as nice.

As with most of SFs stars it will be against TBA........that TBA guy is fighting on like every card.

True he did, but he put his lights out until Shields head bounced on the canvas :lol: . Hendo had been having back problems so I doubt he was 100%. I give shields props for being able to come back from the sledgehammer to win the fight by total domination.
I think hendo takes Mousasi. Hendo probably faces Babalu next.
Strikeforce could bring in a fighter from Dream to fight. Minowaman? :twisted:

Heh won't that be like the opposite of Hendo's start in the UFC? Going for LHW championship belt and losing.....then going for MW.

That was one of the worst fights I've ever seen.
Maybe King Mo will take on The Dean of Mean.
Nah, It'll probably be Feijao. Not a perfect match-up but I'd be down to see it.

In my opinion these are the potential fights:
Rafael Cavalcante (7-2)
Roger Gracie (2-0)
Ron Humprey (5-1)
I don't think a rematch versus Mousasi happens in Texas.

It has to be Gegard. Their is no other fight that sells. Gegard is a solid LHW. The rest are either up and commers or middle of the road guys. SF needs to let Gracie develop. I think Gegard might win a rematch which then would set up a trilogy. That give SF a year to develop the 205 class.

It will most likely be "Feijão" now that I think about it, especially considering the Hispanic diaspora in the Houston area.

Last time I checked, Brazilian isn't "Hispanic".. and no, it's not the same thing.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was Kyle. But I'm willing to bet it won't be Mousasi.
