Zuffa is killing what little high level talent left in Strikeforce....

Look i mean since the ufc raped strikeforce for its heavyweights and well really anyone worth taking the fight cards have been less then stellar leaving fans and fighters wondering just what the hell is the longterm plan here???
My assumption is that with the leftover shotime contract the ufc didnt wanna give up that avenue or contractually can't so they are stuck putting on half assed shows that dana himself would have ridiculed had they been put on under scott cokers banner.
But honestly what really has me steamed is the fact that they are holding hostage what little relavent talent they have left there that can compete on the highest of levels.Im sure you are aware of my opinion on having gilbert melendez in the ufc but there are a couple others who i feel could make for some good fights in the ufc but they are stuck fighting guys they outrank or have already beaten.
If the ufc is really gonna keep strikeforce around and make it a farm league then make some fucking signings there are tons of mid tier prospects and talent waiting to prove themselves do what you said you were gonna do.They said no more hw division yet the hw grand prix has concluded and both the winner and the runer up are set to fight again under the strikeforce banner may i ask who???as you have NO hw fighter signed.
All in all the zuffa brand needs to get there shit together because all the things they mocked and criticised about companys like affliction, and pro elite, and hell strikeforce right before they bought them is dare i say superior to the bull shit ive witnessed as of late.

You know who i really feel bad for aside from us fans is poor scott coker the guy was doing really well before zuffa hell he signed the whole hw division ,he got the deal with shotime way before ufc was on any major television station,and got the copromotion with the biggest mma org in japan dream[rip].He extended himself a little to far and dana stepped in offering to help and said once bought operations will continue as usual leading us all to believe he would help to further this company.
soon after strips the hw division along with all the noteable fighters taking strikeforce back about ten years worth of work lol i dunno this proud california native is pissed to see the ravaged,raped,shadow of a company that once represented my beloved state=[...
