Gilbert Melendez v. Josh Thomson Added to Strikeforce: Evolution

A rematch between Strikeforce’s top lightweights has been scheduled for the December 19 Strikeforce: Evolution card. From GracieFighter.com:

As stated above, this is the third time the rematch has been scheduled. If it doesn’t happen this time they’re going to have to figure out a different direction for the fighters to go. This is scheduled to be a lightweight title unification bout but again, they can’t just sit on this fight forever when neither guy has enough name value to feel like it is a major build-up.
