Former UFC light heavyweight Keith Jardine will get the first crack at dethroning recently crowned Strikeforce Middleweight Champion Luke Rockhold at an as yet announced Strikeforce event scheduled for Jan. 7, 2012, at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.
MMAFighting.com brought word of the pending match-up a short while ago.
Tim Kennedy was originally in line for a title shot; however, an undisclosed injury kept the super soldier from taking the fight and "The Dean of Mean" was apparently the next best option.
