Strikeforce: Diaz vs. Cyborg Live Weigh-In Results
Strikeforce comes home to the HP Pavilion in San Jose, California for an exciting night of fights featuring multiple championship bouts. On Friday, fighters took to the scales in front of a live audience to pass the final hurdle for Saturday's event.
In the headliner, Strikeforce Welterweight Champion Nick Diaz will defend his title against Chute Boxe member Evangelista "Cyborg" Santos.
While Diaz is riding an eight-fight win streak, Santos is just settling in at 170 pounds. He pulled off an impressive first-round TKO stoppage in his Welterweight debut in June 2010 over Marius Zaromskis. Meanwhile, Diaz is coming off a unanimous decision win over K.J. Noons.
The co-main event will also feature a championship bout between Strikeforce Middleweight Champion Ronaldo "Jacare" Souza and Robbie Lawler.
Souza earned the Middleweight Title in August 2010 after taking a unanimous decision win over Tim Kennedy. Coming off a win over Matt Lindland, Lawler is looking to earn his first significant MMA title since his run as the EliteXC Middleweight Champion.
