I did not see any results thread for this event. It looks like Cung Le has been working hard and making some waves in MMA. I hope that his next fight is against Frank Shamrock. That will be a better measure of how good Cung Le has gotten in MMA.

Strikeforce Nov 7th
Last November 22, Cung Le and Anthony Figueroa won their bouts at the Strikeforce-Bodog MMA event in San Jose CA.

Cung Le faced Sam "The Squeeze" Morgan, a former participant of the Ultimate Fighter TV show. Sam Morgan left it all in the cage. In the first two rounds, Morgan constantly moved forward while throwing an onslaught of outside punches. But Cung Le fought smart by slipping most of Morgan's strikes and scoring with numerous counter strikes and takedowns. Although Morgan showed aggression, he suffered the end of many of Cung Le's precise punches and kicks. The referee stopped the fight 1:58 minutes into the third round when Cung delivered a devastating shin kick to Morgan's liver. Cung Le improves his MMA record to 5-0, 5 KOs. Stay tuned for his next bout on March 29th. We are hoping Frank Shamrock will be his next opponent.

Also fighting that night was one of Cung Le's top fighter, Anthony "AntDawg" Figueroa. Anthony faced Peter Sabala at the 137 lb weight class. Anthony dropped Sabala with a mean uppercut in the first round, and then dropped him again with a right hook in round 2. In the final round Anthony dropped his opponent yet another time with a knee blow to the mid-section. Anthony won by split decision, improving his MMA record to 4-1, 1 KO.
