Mousasi informed FanHouse that his next fight will be contested under K-1 rules at the Dynamite!! show on New Year's Eve in Japan, although his opponent has yet to be made official. The former DREAM middleweight champion is 1-0 in his kickboxing career, defeating Musashi via first-round TKO at last year's Dynamite!! show.
When asked when he expects to fight in MMA again, Mousasi noted that his contract states he can only compete on the same shows that feature his fellow M-1 Global fighter, Fedor Emelianenko.
"So when he fights, I will fight too. But sooner would be also be fine by me," he wrote.
Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker told FanHouse on Monday that he expects Henderson to make his debut for the organization in "March or April or May," and given the injuries Emelianenko sustained in his recent fight against Brett Rogers, he is only expected to fight again for Strikeforce late first quarter 2010 or early second quarter. In other words, the timing for everyone involved should work out in favor of a Mousasi-Henderson sometime early next year.
