Two-time champion and top world-ranked heavyweight superstar Josh "The Babyfaced Assassin" Barnett has signed a multi-fight agreement to compete for world championship Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) promotion STRIKEFORCE.

"STRIKEFORCE is the home of the best heavyweight division in the world and I’m proud to be able to call it my home now," said the 32-year-old Barnett (29-5), an expert in catch wrestling who hails from Seattle, Wash.

"I’m looking forward to competing amongst the greatest fighters in the world and fighting my way to another world title."

Maybe the Fedor fight can finally happen...

The Strikeforce HW division is shaping up very nicely with Barnett, Fedor, Overeem, Werdum, and Big Foot. Also, is Arlovski still under contract with them? Still needs more depth but it's good at the top.

Good pick up, but think he'll be little more than pitched against some of their "weaker" fighers to string out a card. I hardly see him vs any of the fighters you've named singh (since you've named all the top HW's in SF!)

Barnett vs Fedor

Winner gets Del Rosario, loser gets a title shot at Overeem.
