“Strikeforce: Evolution” fighter salaries; “King Mo” fined for post-fight celebration
The California State Athletic Commission has released the official fighter payroll for “Strikeforce: Evolution”, which took place at the HP Pavilion on Dec. 19 in San Jose.
The king of the cage, the man taking home the most money for the night, despite being KTFO by Scott Smith was Cung Le. A sweet $150,000 paycheck should help ease Cung’s pain of suffering his first professional defeat.
On the other end of the spectrum was Daisuke Nakamura. This Japanese Pride and Dream veteran received only $200* (yes – two hundred dollars) for his unanimous decision loss to Justin Wilcox in their preliminary card bout.
Scott Smith rallies from brink of defeat – again – to shock Cung Le; Gilbert Melendez regains Strikeforce title with win over Josh Thomson
SAN JOSE, Calif. (Dec. 20, 2009) – No stranger to stirring comeback victories, Scott “Hands Of Steel” Smith rallied to knock out Cung Le, Gilbert Melendez regained the STRIKEFORCE lightweight world title in perhaps the Fight of the Year, and STRIKEFORCE newcomers “Jacare” Souza and “King Mo” Lawal triumphed impressively as STRIKEFORCE closed out an amazing year in spectacular fashion with an incredible fight card before 9,362 at HP Pavilion Saturday on SHOWTIME®.
After Melendez (17-2) of San Francisco earned a unanimous, five-round decision and avenged a loss to Josh Thomson (16-3), of San Jose, and Brazil’s Jacare (11-2) and King Mo (6-0), of Carlsbad, Calif., had earlier scored first-round victories over Matt Lindland (21-7) of Oregon City, Ore., and Mike Whitehead, (24-7) of Las Vegas, respectively, Smith stormed back from the brink of defeat – again – to knock out the previously undefeated Le at 3:25 of the third round.

Here is “King Mo” Lawal’s Strikeforce debut against “Iron” Mike Whitehead. Prior to the fight, Whitehead didn’t seem to think much of Mo, and could not understand why so much attention was being paid to a guy with only five fights.

This is why the hype – “King Mo” knocks out veteran Mike Whitehead in first round at “Strikeforce: Evolution”
Mike Whitehead could not understand why King Mo has been getting all the hype. Now, do you think Whitehead understands “why the hype?”
The ultra-experienced Whitehead preferred to fight King Mo at heavyweight, and Mo, who said tonight he fights at “money weight,” gladly obliged the big man who out-weighed Mo by over 40 pounds.
Whitehead landed a few leg kicks in the fight but that was it. He threw some punches but all he hit was air. Mo landed some solid jabs and hooks before he landed a huge right hand that dropped Whitehead to the canvas, where he followed up with a few extra shots that knocked “Iron” Mike out cold at 3:08 of round one.
