The following results are from the Strikeforce show that took place Saturday night in San Jose, Calif.

-Fabricio Werdum defeated Mike Kyle via first-round submission.

-Gilbert Melendez beat Mitsuhiro Ishida via third-round TKO to win the interim Lightweight Title.

-Gegard Mousasi beat Renato "Babalu" Sobral via first-round TKO to win the Light Hvt. Title.

-Cristiane "Cyborg" Santos defeated Gina Carano via first-round knockout to win the Women's Championship.

Powell's POV: I was looking forward to the Gina vs. Cyborg fight as much as any MMA fight, but unfortunately I was watching a Great Khali vs. Kane house show main event in Mankato last night. Sigh. For a full review of the Strikeforce show, check out Jamie Penick's review at MMATorch.com.
