by Michael David SmithThe UFC and Strikeforce are not currently planning any champion vs. champion matches between the two promotions, and UFC President Dana White says he doesn’t have any future plans to book the best fighters from Strikeforce against the best fighters in the UFC.

But make no mistake: Superfights are on the way.

White and UFC Chairman and CEO Lorenzo Fertitta both said in announcing their merger on Monday that they view their job as giving the fans the fights they want. And there’s just no way to accomplish that goal without eventually booking Strikeforce champions against UFC champions.

Daniel Cormier and Josh Barnett fought most of their five-round bout with broken hands at Strikeforce on Saturday night. Cormier broke his right hand, the same one he broke in knocking out Antonio Silva in September. Barnett broke his left hand and headed straight to the hospital after losing the decision in the final of the Strikeforce heavyweight grand prix.

Both men are planning to see surgeons after their grueling bout. Cormier wants to make sure this injury isn’t recurring.

“I think this time I’m going to take a different approach,” Cormier said. “I think I’m going to have surgery on it and get it fixed, because I don’t want it to be recurring and then end up costing me later and later on down the line.”

Barnett’s manager said the fighter will see an orthopedist to find out how serious the injury is.

Five-round fights are difficult without any injuries. Cormier and Barnett were forced to use different weapons throughout their bout to find a way to the judges’ decision.

UFC president Dana White loves busting on his fighters, so he had some fun when he caught “The Ultimate Fighter” coach and bantamweight contender Urijah Faber flexing without a shirt in a two-way mirror at the TUF gym. As always, White drops some f-bombs here and there, so beware if your workplace frowns on such a thing.

Faber tweeted that White was so tickled by the blog that, “Wow @danawhite just called me laughing hysterically abt to pee his pants.” Let this be a lesson to anyone about to flex in a mirror. Dana White may just be on the other side with a video camera.
