Description
Strikeforce 42: Rousey vs. Kaufman was a mixed martial arts event held by Strikeforce. The event took place on August 18, 2012, at the Valley View Casino Center in San Diego, California. It was broadcast live on Showtime and Showtime Extreme.
Background:
The main event featured a Strikeforce Women's Bantamweight Championship bout between new titleholder Ronda Rousey and former champion Sarah Kaufman. The entire card consisted of nine sanctioned mixed martial arts bouts. The official weigh-ins, on August 17, were open to fans as reported by MMAjunkie. Rousey appeared on Conan and on Showtime's "All Access: Ronda Rousey" to promote herself and her upcoming fight. She also appeared on the cover of ESPN's Body Issue. Rousey upped the hype at the official pre-fight press conference when she said "if I get her (Kaufman) in a choke I'm gonna hold on to it until she's actually dead...". With the cancellation of Strikeforce's next two events, and their last event featuring only male fighters, this was the last Strikeforce card to feature bouts involving female fighters. As he was absent from Strikeforce's last event due to a private family matter, this was the last Strikeforce card featuring Mauro Ranallo providing commentary on the televised broadcast.
