Bobby Lashley to fight on Strikeforce 'Nashville' card

Former WWE and TNA wrestler Bobby Lashley has been added to the list of fighters on the April 17th Strikeforce 'Nashville' card. Sources close to the MMA organization have said that Lashley is most likely to be part of the fourth bout added to the CBS card, of which Scott Coker (Strikeforce CEO) has recently spoke about.

Although Lashley's record stands at 5-0 many believe he is yet to face any real talent. He has beaten Bob Sapp, Jason Guida, Mike Cook, Joshua Franklin and most recently at Strikeforce 'Miami'-Wes Sims. Not exactly the best of the best. He manhandled Wes Sims in January scoring a TKO victory and his fight against Bob Sapp was more of a circus attraction than an MMA bout.

With fighters such as Dan Henderson, 'King Mo', Gegard Mousasi, Gilbert Melendez, Shinya Aoki and Jake Shields already providing a star studded main card, I wonder who Lashley will be pitted against in the fourth bout.

    yeah but is because hes taking it slow!

    i really think lashley has a chance of becoming a contender in time!

    hes very athletic and strong!

    even though i dont like wrestling of any organization show like WWE , RAW and all those fake shows!



    i think lashley has a chance and his doing the right thing by taking it slow!

    Rogers vs Lashley would hve been a sick fight and would make more sense than Rogers vs Overeem for the title
