A Cesar Gracie protégé, Douglas last appeared at Strikeforce “Carano vs. Cyborg” in August 2009, when his four-fight winning streak was snapped in a third-round rear-naked choke submission loss to Justin Wilcox. In six professional outings, “Tarzan” has never gone the distance. Anchored in Antioch, Calif., Douglas holds a 2008 technical knockout victory over muay Thai superstar Mongkhon “Malaipet” Wiwasuk.
A rematch pairing undefeated welterweight prospect Roger Bowling against Bobby Voelker will headline Strikeforce Challengers 11. Bowling beat Voelker by technical decision in their first encounter five months ago. He was ahead 29-28 on all three scorecards when an unintentional eye poke left him unable to continue 1:38 into round three.
