Opinion: Why was “Strikeforce at the Dome” so bad?
It is not often you get an MMA event without any real highlights but ‘Strikeforce at the Dome’ fitted that bill. The show is probably even more of a let down considering we have treated to action packed events such as EliteXC: Street Certified, WEC 32 and UFC 81 already this month.

My thoughts on EliteXC’s Uprising card from Hawaii
The debut show in February wasn’t anything special but considering it was their first show, it was pretty good. The June co-promotion with Strikeforce for the Baroni vs. Shamrock main event was perhaps the second best show of the year, just behind PRIDE 33 from this past February.
