We're pleased to announce that Y! Sports Fight Night returns on Friday night, as we will offer an exclusive stream of Strikeforce live from the HP Pavillion in San Jose.
This card will feature the first one-night MMA tournament in California since the state sanctioned the sport. Trevor Prangley, Falainko Vitale, Yuki Sasaki and Jorge Santiago will compete in matches consisting of two, five-minute rounds. The winners will fight in the final later in the evening. The semifinal matchups will be determined by random draw on Friday.
Also, the first Strikeforce heavyweight champion will be crowned in a battle of veterans, as Paul "The Headhunter" Buentello takes on Alistair Overeem.
Other fighters of note on the show include the sensational Cung Le and Bobby Southworth.
