No surprises, but a little controversy with the stoppage in the Riggs vs Misaki fight. I personally thought it was a bad stoppage because Riggs was blocking the punches, but there are those who would disagree with me. Guys am i the only one who watched this event or what? lol. Well check it out and judge for yourself if it was a good stoppage. http://www.mmaroot.com/joe-riggs-vs-kazuo-misaki-strikeforce-video/ So overall Strikeforce playboy 2 was a decent night of fights.

Not a great card, considering Bobby Southworth whos the strikeforce LHW champ was facing Babalu. Then Bobby had to pull out because of a leg injury so they brought in Anthony Ruiz. THEN Babalu pulled out for a leg injury too, so they got Trevor Prangley. So we end up with Anthony Ruiz vs Trevor Prangley, probably a better fight than Bobby vs Babalu anyways hehe. Riggs vs Misaki could be a great fight, but Riggs is just so hit and miss as a fighter, hes reminding me of Yves Edwards these days. He either beats someone hes not supposed to beat, or loses to someone he shouldnt lose to. Still its a good matchup and its prectically carring this fightcard as sad as that is.. Other than that, theres a few cameo appearances by fighters who completely outmatch their opponents. Josh Thompson Mitsuhiro Ishida Terry Martin Its a bit disappointing considering Strikeforce put on some GREAT cards last year! but its much better than Cagerage which is also on tonight hehe..
