Following 'TUF 17' snub, Derek Brunson hoping for January Strikeforce appearance

Derek Brunson is a Strikeforce fighter, as he was before.

On Monday, a secured spot on "The Ultimate Fighter 17" was nixed when Zuffa was unable to get approval from Strikeforce broadcast partner Showtime to release the fighter, Brunson's manager today told MMAjunkie.com.

Officials from Strikeforce parent company Zuffa now hope to place the middleweight on a card planned for January, though he has yet to receive an official booking.
