We're back from our short break, and on this week's episode we're discussing the kickoff of 2011's Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand Prix tournament! At the inaugural event, there are three alternate bouts, with all three fights ending in first round finishes. Then, in the co-main event, Russian slugger Sergei Kharitonov makes his Strikeforce debut against former UFC heavyweight champion Andrei Arlovski. And, in the main event, "The Last Emperor" Fedor Emelianenko tries to rebound from the first legitimate loss of his career as he locks horns with the biggest fighter in the tournament, Antonio "Bigfoot" Silva. It's one of the most momentous cards in Strikeforce history...don't miss this one! All our links can be found here: https://podfollow.com/inside-the-hexagon/view.
