Fedor won't fight him without drug testing stipulations and Werdum has shown zero interest in fighting him, citing that he beat him before already and fighting him would be a step backwards. You have your #1 contender pretty much REFUSING TO FIGHT FOR THE BELT.

    I don't really see how it's his fault.
    Because he is on Super Horse Steroids and no one wants to fight this equine negro.

    I mean, most fighters are on juice, but that dude is on some Ivan Drago / Manny Pacquiao shit...why would a top contender want to mess with this brute?

      I can easily see Werdum and JDS winning.

      Overeem refused to defend that belt for almost two years. Ducking or not you need to defend a title.

      Like it or not Strikeforce is too lenient. That fighter friendly crap leads to huge vacancies, droughts , and stipulation demands.
      Best reason to have a license.

        Wrong.

        'Reem didn't refuse to defend. He was under a one-fight contract with SF and was expected to lose to Buentello. He won, but Strikeforce didn't have anyone for him to defend against so they didn't extend his contract. He goes off to K-1/DREAM for a while, then Strikeforce acquires actual HW talent and wants him fight Rogers or Werdum, but can't due to injury. He's finally back under the Strikeforce banner officially in fall of 2009, but because of his contractual obligations to K-1 he couldn't compete until 2010.

        Again, not his fault. Blame Strikeforce, not Overeem.

                I favor Fedor and Overeem over Cain, Carwin doesnt have much chance, to slow, no cardio, just land a big shot, thats it

                Fedor is more frustrating than Overeem, Fedor fought 69 seconds in 2010, at least Overeem takes fights and does K-1

                Mir and Nog will be knocked out of the top 10 soon, Barnett with 1 good win will be in there again
