Brock Lesnar has apparently called out Roy Nelson, as he believes "Big Country" will be a good challenge for his return bout.

Strikeforce News It continues to look as if Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker has next to no interest in working with Bellator. The Lightweight Championship Super fight between Bellator's Eddie Alvarez and Strikeforce's Gilbert Melendez is not priority No. 1; looks as if booking a rematch between Melendez and Dream champ Shinya Aoki, in Japan, is what's top on Coker's list.
Coker also recently mentioned that the Dan Henderson vs. Renato (Babalu) Sobral winner will get the Strikeforce title shot against Rafael Feijao. He also called Dana White the "Don King of MMA" and while he's more of the Bob Arum, this could get ugly.
And for all the mainstream fans -- Herschel Walker’s next Strikeforce opponent will be revealed Friday.
