Joe Riggs vs. Jay Hieron to stream live on EASportsMMA.com
While many fans were previously disappointed with Strikeforce’s decision to place a welterweight showdown between Joe Riggs and Jay Hieron on the untelevised portion of “Strikeforce: Miami“, it now looks like the makers of the upcoming “EA Sports MMA” have stepped up to insure that viewers at home will still be able to witness the bout.
EA Sports MMA recently announced via Twitter that the bout between Riggs and Hieron will be broadcast live on EASportsMMA.com.
The bout, which will be the only undercard attraction to be aired on the site, is set to kick off at 9 pm ET.
Riggs is currently on a four fight win streak with wins over the likes of Luke Stewart and Phil Baroni in the mix, while Hieron has won his last six straight with big wins over Mark Miller, Jason High and Jesse Taylor along the way.

hats off to the EA sports marketing team… got there ear to the street
That is great. Too bad they couldn’t get the whole undercard, but hey…..this is better than nothing.
Glad to be able to see this fight, Riggs always has had the ability to get a surprise win so this should be a good fight.
