Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker,

Emelianenko, 33, also is dealing with health issues. He suffered a fracture and tendon damage in his left thumb, and a fractured nose in the Rogers fight, Coker said. Emelianenko stopped in Los Angeles on Monday to be treated for the injuries.

“[The hand injury] could’ve been from that blow when he had Brett on the mat at the end,” Coker said. “We’re hearing he could be out for four to six months.” [LA Times]

Fedor injury will likely keep him out till early fall. It is expected that his next opponent would be Alistair Overeem next for the Strikeforce heavyweight belt.

Fedor is recently married and it wouldn’t be surprised if he is looking for a little downtime after his big win.

UFC President Dana White,

“CBS would be out of their mind to put that rinky-dink [Strikeforce] . . . on the air again . . . and without that backing, [promoters] won’t have the money to pay [Emelianenko].”

“The guy just got his face smashed in by Brett Rogers. Do you know what Brock or [UFC heavyweights] Frank Mir and Cain Velasquez would do to Brett Rogers? …It’s time to bring this guy [Fedor] in, to see Brock Lesnar smash his head.”

Dana White being overly confident in the UFC heavyweight as he makes some comments about CBS’s broadcast of Strikeforce “Fedor vs Rogers” to the LA Times. Just in case you missed the action,

Will be in talks with Aoki and Henderson this week. Josh Barnett would be a great addition if he works out his doping issues with the California State Athletic Commission.
