ABOUT
Six months ago, Lavar Johnson lay in a hospital bed, clinging to his life after he was gunned down while attending a family barbeque during the July 4 holiday. On Friday, March 26, the 32-year-old will enter a new chapter in his incredible recovery when he restarts his professional mixed martial arts (MMA) career in the main event of a STRIKEFORCE Challengers fight card at Save Mart Center in Fresno, California on Friday, March 26. In other action on the STRIKEFORCE Challengers card, "Abongo" Humphrey (5-1) of Atlanta, Ga., will square off with George Bush III (5-1) of Columbus, Ohio, at light heavyweight (205 pounds). Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt Luke Stewart (6-2) of San Francisco, California will make his long-awaited return to action against Andre Galvao (3-1) of Brazil in a welterweight (170 pounds) contest. Unbeaten Zoila Frausto (2-0) of Fresno will face off at 135 pounds with another one of the top prospects in the women's field, Miesha "Takedown" Tate (7-2) of Olympia, Washington. American Kickboxing Academy bred wrestling stud Justin "The Silverback" Wilcox (8-3) of San Jose, Calif., will do battle with Bryan Travers (13-1) of Bakersfield, Calif., at lightweight (155 pounds). Save Mart Center doors will open for the STRIKEFORCE Challengers event at 6 p.m. PT. The first live, non-televised, preliminary bout will begin at 6:45 p.m.

Big Lavar's the shit, this is his last fight


Galvao's a beast too, I thought he was going to win the DREAM WW Grand Prix but he lost in the semifinals to Jason High on a decision (I thought he won). Here's his fight against John Alessio from the first round of the GP


Also Travers is hurt and Wilcox is fighting Shamar Bailey, who fought on the undercard of the CBS card so I saw him live. Seemed like a lay & prayer.

lol I'm at work so I just read about it. Sounds like Stewart got robbed and Tate looked good. Cormier won by KO in the 1st on the undercard too. He'll probably be headlining one of these soon
