Kennedy: 'Nobody gives a $#!%' about Strikeforce: Rockhold vs. Kennedy
by Steven Marrocco | source: mmajunkie.com

Looking at the stage for the Strikeforce: Rockhold vs. Kennedy pre-event press conference, it's your average press conference. Looking toward the audience, it feels like a forgotten event.

"I just came from Vegas, where they had 2,000 people at the weigh-in (it was actually closer to 8,000)," said Tyron Woodley, who fights Nate Marquardt for the vacant Strikeforce welterweight title, told MMAjunkie.com. "I think it's a disrespect to Strikeforce. It should be advertised a little bit more."

"Take a picture," Tim Kennedy said. "There's not a single goddamn reporter here. There's four of you guys. This is two title fights for Strikeforce. It's crystal clear that nobody gives a s---. They don't. I knock Rockhold out on Saturday night? Changes nothing for me. Nothing in, like, what media publications are going to cover me, who talks about me, sponsors I'm going to get. Do you know how much money I didn't make in sponsors for this fight because nobody cares about Strikeforce? It's insane.
