In preparation for tonight’s Strikeforce event at the Playboy Mansion, I thought it would be worth a look at one of Gilbert Melendez’s previous fights.  Undefeated Melendez will fight in the Strikeforce main event to defend his lightweight title.  Is Melendez worth the hype, you decide. 

Yahoo! Sports is showing the fight that took place between Melendez and UFC vet Clay Guida last year in June.  This is a classic battle, better then anything we’ve seen in the UFC lightweight division lately.  Frank Shamrock is in the commentator’s booth while Phil Baroni provides fight analysis between rounds.
