Gegard Mousasi vs. Mike Kyle, which was originally supposed to happen back on April 9, is likely for Strikeforce's upcoming Sept. 10 event, according to Heavy.com.
These two were initially set to square off for the right to determine the number one contender to the light heavyweight throne; however, Kyle broke his hand and was forced out of action.
Mousasi went on to a date with UFC veteran Keith Jardine. Had he won, he may have been in line for a shot at the 205-pound strap. Instead, they fought to a draw and the division is just as cloudy as ever.
Look no further than the champion of said division, Dan Henderson, accepting a heavyweight fight against Fedor Emelianenko for evidence of this fact.
That said, if everyone can make it to September healthy, Strikeforce might finally find a legitimate challenger to "Hendo's" title.
