Ya dude...guess there tv deal pulled their money out of the event so it folded. That's the rumour at this point

even though the Fedor fight got screwed up, I was still looking forward to the other fights.

and it looks like the next Strikeforce is falling apart too. First Overeem/Werdum got canceled, then Diaz/Riggs is canceled. I'm still looking forward to seeing the Carano/Cyborg fight, but thats about it.

Diaz is fighting Baroni now....maybe Fedor and Werdum will fight (hehe)...sucks for those guys that trained for 8 weeks to fight for a show/fight to get canceled (and those fighting on the affliction card to lose there payday). I guess there are talks that Strikeforce and Affliction are merging so ya never know we still might see Fedor some time this year

gomi was supposed to fight on Affliction and Diaz on Strikeforce.....I wish they could make this rematch happen. it'd be fuckin great.

I wanted to see Mousasi VS Sobral as well...be sweet if Strikeforce could put some of these canceled fights on there card on Aug.15th (if that merger is true)

It's seems as though Affliction is no more. They folded.
