As expected newly crowned Strikeforce light heavyweight champion Gegard Mousasi (26-2-1) will, in fact, defend his belt at Strikeforce’s Nov. 7 event, which airs on CBS.
MMAjunkie.com recently reported that Mousasi was expected to be part of the Chicago-area card, and the M-1 fighter today confirmed his participation with M-1global.com.
No opponent has been named for the fighter.
The Nov. 7 Strikeforce event, “Strikeforce: Emelianenko vs. Rogers,” takes place at the 11,000-seat Sears Centre in Hoffman Estates, Ill., and features a headliner between Fedor Emelianenko and Brett Rogers. The broadcast kicks off a multi-event deal between Strikeforce and CBS, which previously aired EliteXC shows before the company’s 2008 demise.
