Is it possible for a 17-second period of time to be both the funniest folly and the most frustrating fight of your career? For Bobby Southworth it just may have been.
Strikeforce: Revenge was an extended card with heavy action in mind. Six prelims and six main card bouts were hand-picked for as much excitement as the matchmakers could find for the 10,000+ fans in San Jose. Per the usual for Strikeforce events, the fans in attendance and those at home were far from disappointed.
10 finishes in 12 fights. What a night.
Nestled into the eighth spot on the card was a clash between Bobby Southworth vs James Irvin.
