Lashley to Fight on CBS in April

Former WWE star and current Strikeforce fighter Bobby Lashley (4-0 MMA, 0-0 Strikeforce) has confirmed to Heavy.com that he’ll be participating on the next Strikeforce on CBS card in April.

“We’re going to do the fight on the 30th in Miami, and then turn around and do the April fight on CBS,” Lashley told Heavy on Friday night. “I told them I wanted to stay active. If they want to give me six fights this year, I’ll take six fights this year. I need more fights under my belt so that when that big fight comes, I’m ready for it.”

Lashley faces Yohan Banks on the “Strikeforce: Miami” card later this month.
