Jay Hieron screwed again
Poor Jay Hieron is probably wishing he went to the UFC now instead of Strikeforce. After the collapse of Affliction Hieron moved to Strikeforce with the idea he would be fighting Nick Diaz for the Welterweight Title. When Diaz missed a pre-fight drug test mandated by the California State Athletic Commission he was denied a license to compete. Jesse Taylor stepped in to replace Diaz and the fight became a non-title bout on the nights undercard. Hieron went on to win by Unanimous Decision and had hoped to take on Diaz his next fight for the Title.
On January 30th Strikeforce will be in Miami, Florida and Nick Diaz will be fighting for the Welterweight title, against Strikeforce newcomer Marius Žaromskis. Feeling passed over for the title shot Hieron voiced his opinion about the situation and it appears Strikeforce is punishing him by once again putting him on the night undercard. Hieron will be facing a very tough opponent in Joe Riggs but has been forced off the main card in favor of Herchel Walker’s MMA debut against totally unknown Greg Nagy (1-1).
There is no way in hell anyone would rather see Herchel Walker vs. Greg Nagy over Jay Hieron vs. Joe Riggs, Hieron is getting screwed over again!
