We've posted a little bit about Drew Fickett briefly being on Friday's Strikeforce card as a last minute replacement of a replacement to face Luke Stewart. Fickett ultimately got scratched because he was under contract to fight Ryan Ford for the Maximum Fighting Championship welterweight title.
The whole thing was handled in a very professional manner by all parties involved. Exhibit A, here's a purported transcript of a voice message that MFC promoter Mark Pavelich left on Fickett's manager's voice mail upon hearing of the Strikeforce fight:

You have to be a little more than eccentric to name your band "Cock Sandwich."

That was bizarre. But bloodyelbows summary at the end was fair - fighters: don't break your agreements, promoters: don't leave threatening voicemails.
