The weigh-ins for the Strikeforce Fedor vs Rogers event were conducted yesterday with only one fighter having a significant problem making weight. Dustin Neace, scheduled to fight Jeff Curran at 145 pounds on the undercard, was unable to make weight as the two agreed to a catchweight bout. In the two main card fights in the Heavyweight division, Antonio Silva outweighed Fabricio Werdum by 21 pounds (Silva 263 lbs to Werdum at 241 lbs) and Brett Rogers outweighed Fedor Emelianenko by 32 pounds (Rogers 264 lbs to Fedor at 232 lbs).

Strikeforce returns on November 7th as they showcase their prize fighter, Fedor Emelianenko, in primetime on CBS.

Fedor Emelianenko vs. Brett “The Grim” Rogers - Heavyweight
Strikeforce pulled off the biggest coup of the year and possibly in the history of the sport by acquiring the services of Fedor Emelianenko, the ProFighting-fans.com #1 pound for pound fighter in MMA and top ranked MMA heavyweight outside of the UFC. UFC President Dana White was unwilling to co-promote events with M-1 Global which gave Strikeforce the clear path. Now, CBS and Strikeforce will look to reap the benefits. Fedor is 30-1 in his career with the only blemish a controversial loss via TKO due to a cut which came illegally to Tsuyoshi Kosaka. Since then Fedor’s resume would service as a who’s who of the sport. He has rare talent and can dominate fights on the ground or in the stand up. Fedor will face the 10-0 Brett “The Grim” Rogers, a massive human being who has surprising athleticism. I spent some time watching Rogers train in person and walked away very impressed with his immense size and nimbleness. In Rogers’ last bout he defeated former UFC Heavyweight Champion Andrei Arlovski with a devastating blow 22 seconds into the 1st round. Rogers has one punch power and is a very dangerous opponent for Fedor.

Antonio Silva vs Fabricio Werdum - Heavyweight
The 13-4 Silva is coming off a dominating performance against Jim York at Sengoku - Tenth Battle. Silva, who was suspended for failing a drug test in 2008, is a legitimate contender for the Strikeforce title. Fabricio Werdum, an expert jiu-jitsu practitioner, looked in much better condition in his victory over Mike Kyle on August 15th at Strikeforce: Carano vs Cyborg. This is an intriguing match-up between two fighters looking to make their name in the Strikeforce Heavyweight Division.
Prediction: Werdum via submission 2nd round
