The Rockstar Girls ...
The event, STRIKEFORCE’s first in the state of Ohio, is taking place in conjunction with The Arnold Sports Festival, the nation’s largest health and fitness exposition founded by Arnold Schwarzenegger.
The STRIKEFORCE Booth was one of the most popular and busiest ones inside the Expo. STRIKEFORCE World Welterweight Champion Nick Diaz signed autographs while former STRIKEFORCE Champion Josh Thomson, who helped emcee the all-day festivities inside the booth, played video games and joked with the fans.
