Strikeforce Heavyweight GP Winner to Receive Title Shot

Filed under: Strikeforce, News

Alistair Overeem's Strikeforce heavyweight title will not be on the line until after the Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand Prix.

Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker announced on a media call Thursday that Instead of Overeem having to defend his belt all through the tournament, he'll make his title defense at a later time against the Grand Prix winner instead.

'To make it simple just like they do in Japan or K-1," Coker said. "The tournament champion will stand on his own and we will have our heavyweight champion and the tournament champion."
