This is just one of the stories that I posted on there. </p> <p><a href="http://warclaw.blogspot.com/2010/01/bobby-lashley-undecided-on-his-career.html" rel="nofollow">http://warclaw.blogspot.com/2010/01/bobby-lashley-undecided-on-his-career.html</a></p> <p>As most MMA fans may know by now, former WWE Superstar and former ECW Champion, Bobby Lashley, has become a mixed martial artist.</p> <p>Lashley isn't just all show, though. Bobby Lashley is a 3-time national amateur wrestling champion (1996-1998) and a 2-time National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics Champion (1997-1998). He even trained for the 2004 Olympics, until a knee injury in 2003 forced him out during a bank robbery. Thus, began his pro wrestling career.</p> <p>Now, Lashley is wrestling with the TNA Wrestling promotion, but also has his Strikeforce debut coming up on January 30. Many question whether he can sustain the rigorous schedule of both pro wrestling and MMA. Even he's not exactly sure which one he will be sticking with in the long run. As of right now, he's staying on track to do both.</p> <p>"For the time being, TNA is working real well,” Lashley said. “They give me the time I need... When I get to the bigger matches, and every heavyweight fighter in Strikeforce has to set their sights on Fedor. When that fight is scheduled, I’m going to have to completely dedicate myself.”</p> <p>Bobby Lashley is currently undefeated in MMA with a 4-0 record. His next fight is at the upcoming Strikeforce: Miami event on January 30, but they've had problems setting him up with an opponent. Two fighters have already been declined to fight Lashley (Shane Del Rosario, 9-0; and Yohan Banks, 2-1), due to the Florida commission not approving the fight (both fighters did agree to fight Lashley). Strikeforce is now trying to set up Bobby Lashley vs. Jimmy Ambriz (14-12), a seasoned vet with a mediocre career.</p> <p>Bobby Lashley's fight is the only fight on the Strikeforce: Miami card that has not been confirmed. Other fights on the card include:</p> <p>Nick Diaz (20-7) vs. Marius Zaromski (13-3)<br /> Cris "Cyborg" Santos (8-1) vs. Marloes Coenen (17-3)<br /> Robbie Lawler (16-5) vs. Melvin Manheof (24-6-1)<br /> Herschel Walker (0-0) vs. Greg Nagy (1-1)<br /> Jay Hieron (18-4) vs. Joe Riggs (32-10) </p> http://www.mytakeradio.com/forums/topic/strikeforce-miami#post-686 Fri, 15 Jan 2010 03:27:53 +0000 MTRHost 686@http://www.mytakeradio.com/forums/ <p>Of course with the talk of Herschel Walker I had to include the hype video for Strikeforce on Showtime. Catch these fight on 1.30.10</p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BEfbiEabpo" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BEfbiEabpo</a> </p>
