Who Will Win The Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand Prix?

 

With the semi-finals of the Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand Prix Tournament wrapping up last night, one has to wonder who will win in the finals.

In the first semi-final fight, Daniel Cormier who was a late replacement for Alistair Overeem shocked the world when he knocked out Antonio “Bigfoot” Silva in the very first round. This was Silva’s first KO/TKO loss of his career. In the main event Josh Barnett took on Sergei Kharitonov. Barnett made quick work of Kharitonov, by taking him down and immediately moving to mount. Roughing Kharitonov up for a bit with forearm shots and elbows, which was quickly followed up by a Barnett favorite, the arm triangle choke.

Now that the finals are set the question at bay is which of the two men will be taking home the Strikeforce Grand Prix Belt?
