Bobby Lashley vs Shane Del Rosario in the works
Posted By RJ Clifford on the Dec 16 2009
Two up and coming undefeated heavyweights could collide January in Strikeforce. The 9-0 Shane Del Rosario confirmed to MMA Worldwide that he was offered and accepted a fight with 4-0 Bobby Lashley. Del Rosario’s camp stated that Lashley accepted the offer as well and are both awaiting confirmation from Strikeforce.
Former TNA Wrestling stand out Bobby Lashley entered professional MMA in late 2008 recently signing with Strikeforce. Splitting his time between stints as a professional wrestler and MMA fighter, Lashley seems to have committed to MMA full time training out of American Top Team in Florida.
Del Rosario, fighting out of Irvine, CA for Team Oyama, has defeated all nine of his opponents by stoppage in his short career with only one opponent making it out of the first round. The current WBC Muay Thai champion sports a 9-1 professional record with nine KO’s splitting his time between Muay Thai and MMA.
The fight will likely appear on Showtime and is rumored for January 30th. This will be a large step up in competition for both fighters in their young careers as they have slowly built up their records and experience.
