Luke Rockhold Latest With January Strikeforce Injury Bug

by Scott "Kubryk" Sawitz on November 25, 2012

Strikeforce seems to be winding down with a whimper, not a bang, as the proposed super show to end the promotion in January has lost another of its top fights.

Luke Rockhold has been confirmed as withdrawing from the card in his scheduled title defense against Lorenz Larkin. Rockhold wasn’t the first champion to withdraw; Gil Melendez withdrew earlier this month from his lightweight title defense against Pat Healy as well.
