Fans are the sure winners in ZUFFA-Strikeforce deal
Earlier today, Ariel Helwani from MMAfighting.com dropped a bomb on the Mixed Martial Arts world. Dana White has publicly announced that UFC’s parent company has purchased Strikeforce.

Some others want to judge rankings on more of a “whom would beat whom” basis.
