The search for Bobby Lashley’s opponent continues.
 
Strikeforce officials on Tuesday afternoon told MMAjunkie.com that journeyman heavyweight Jimmy Ambriz (14-12-1
MMA, 0-0 SF) is not fighting the former pro wrestler at “Strikeforce:
Miami,” despite a seal of approval from the Florida State Boxing
Commission.
 
Despite the latest setback, officials said they felt confident a
replacement opponent would be found in time for the Jan. 30 event,
which features a welterweight title bout between Nick Diaz and Marius
Zaromskis and will be broadcast live on Showtime.
