Im guessing that he will run through the the Strikeforce competition in a year and a half then still be worth a lot to UFC. If he gets Brock 1st fight he has a very real chance of loosing and Fador will be worth a lot less and M-1 will have no promotion chances.
By fighting Strickforce he is guaranteed 3 or 4 more winning paychecks and sponsor checks an a chance for M-1 to take off. He will still be worth a lot if not more to UFC in 2 years, but on the flip side Brock will be that much better.
Remember what happened to Cro Cop when everybody thought he was going to run through the HW division? And all of the pride fighters for that fact. I was a die hard Pride fan, but their top guys have not done too well.
Every fighter has a shelf life and Brock just started started. He is gonna get even better, i wouldn't want to fight that guy, even in a video game.
My post is just a guess, i would be curious on what Anthony had to say.
