This week, Strikeforce announced that they signed kickboxer Melvin Manhoef and and former Elite XC champion KJ Noons. As shown in the above highlight, Manhoef can strike. And strike. And strike and strike and strike. He does have trouble against submission artists, losing recently to Paulo Filho by armbar and Strikeforce light heavyweight champ Gegard Mousasi by triangle choke. Still, the man brings pain.

Hopefully, Noons will rematch soon with Nick Diaz. You may remember that after Noons and Diaz fought in Elite XC, there was a bit of a melee afterwards. (Warning: Lots of middle fingers at that link.)
