Strikeforce bringing Heavyweight Grand Prix semifinals to Cincinnati, Ohio

By: Jamie Penick, MMATorch Editor-in-Chief

Strikeforce's next major event has had a date for awhile, and now it has a location as well, as MMAJunkie.com reports that the organization is heading back to Ohio for the second time in 2011.

The September 10 event is now expected to take place from the U.S. Bank Arena in Cincinnati, per the report, following up on Strikeforce's trip to Cleveland in March for Strikeforce "Feijao vs. Henderson."

Though Ohio runs a large amount of MMA events yearly, this will mark the first major event in Cincinnati since Anderson Silva's second win over Rich Franklin headlined UFC 77 from this same venue.

This card will feature a stacked main card for the night's Showtime broadcast, with the Heavyweight World Grand Prix semifinals, a Middleweight Championship bout and more. The full rumored card is below:

* Ronaldo Souza vs. Luke Rockhold (Middleweight Championship)
* Daniel Cormier vs. Antonio Silva (Heavyweight Grand Prix semifinal)
* Josh Barnett vs. Sergei Kharitonov (Heavyweight Grand Prix semifinal)
* Roger Gracie vs. Muhammed "King Mo" Lawal
* Maximo Blanco vs. Josh Thomson
* Jordan Mein vs. Evangelista "Cyborg" Santos
