From previous statements, you’d surmise White and Zuffa are interested in keeping Strikeforce alive as long as humanly possible with the intentions of folding the organization provided there were sufficient roadblocks to growth. Read these comments from White, however, and tell me if you get the sense that White wants to keep Strikeforce alive as chief priority. I tend to think not. Very much not. Emphasis mine:

“We’re going to try to run this thing separately, and we’ll see how it goes”

“We’ll see if we can pull it off, if we can make it happen”

“If it didn’t happen the worst case scenario that happens if we own Strikeforce is these guys roll over into the UFC”.
