Cyborg Replaces Diesel at Strikeforce.

Posted On: March 5, 2008 at 2:28am

“Cyborg” Evangelista Santos (15-11) will replace “Diesel” Joe Riggs on Strikeforce’s 29 March card in San Jose.

Santos will fight Joey Villasenor (24-6).

Riggs was replaced due to a back injury requiring surgery he suffered at last month’s Strikeforce event in Tacoma.

Santos fights Makoto Takimoto (4-3) on World Victory Road’s debut event in Japan today.

He returns from a 1 February TKO loss to Gegard Mousasi at an HCF event in Calgary.

Villasenor comes off a split decision victory over Riki Fukuda (9-3) at a September 2007 EliteXC show.
