Strikeforce head Steve Coker recently told MMA Hour that he thinks Bobby Lashley vs. Batista “should happen” in Strikeforce, but that the main issue right now is Batista’s schedule.
“I know there’s ongoing dialogue between [Strikeforce matchmaker] Rich [Chou] and Bautista, and they are trying to come to an agreement of the minds, but right now Bautista has a couple of movie offers and it’s just tying up his time. Let’s see where it goes from there.”
