Might have seen this coming: Fedor axed from Strikeforce

[Dpantherman]

PHILADELPHIA -- The "Last Emperor" has seen his last fight in Strikeforce.

Fedor Emelianenko will be cut from the promotion following his loss to Dan Henderson at last Saturday's Strikeforce/M-1 Fedor vs. Henderson event.

UFC president Dana White -- a co-owner of Strikeforce parent company Zuffa LLC -- confirmed the news following the UFC 133 press conference on Thursday.

"He's being cut, yeah," White told the media. "Why? Do you think we should keep him?"

"You guys thought he was the pound-for-pound best in the world, but I thought he was overrated for years," White said.

Even though he has lost 3 fights, Fedor has massive fan appeal. While I like Dana, this move I think is just payback for not signing with the UFC years ago. Same thing with Alistar Overeem, why in the world do you let him go?
