Scot Coker Speaks Up About The Zuffa Purchace of Strikeforce + Fedor's Next Fight

A great video interview with Scott Coker by the Inside MMA guys. Don't know how to comment on this. Just watch it.

Or maybe I'll just sum it up: 

- Scott Coker believes that the Strikeforce brand will not die off and will not get engulfed by the UFC.
- The relation between Strikeforce and the Japanese MMA promotion Dream remains intact.
- Women's MMA will be kept alive in Strikeforce.
- A Strikeforce / CBS deal is possible.
- Fedor has "multiple fights" remaining in Strikeforce and his contract is with the San Jose MMA promotion, not with Showtime.
- M-1 Global had to learn about the purchase from the news.
- UFC vs Strikeforce superfights will be happening. It is a matter of time.
- Looks like Dana White is not directly involved with Strikeforce. Lorenzo Feritta is.
