Strikeforce light heavyweight champion Muhammed Lawal (7-0) is likely to make his first title defense against Rafael Cavalcante (9-2) when the promotion heads south for its latest Showtime offering tentatively scheduled for Aug. 21 in Houston, Texas.

Five Ounces of Pain first reported the pending match-up earlier today.

"King Mo" laid claim to the throne with a lopsided unanimous decision win over the highly regarded Gegard Mousasi at the Strikeforce/CBS "Saturday Night Fights" event back on April 17 in Nashville.

It was his second straight win for the San Jose-based promotion and another example of the effectiveness that accompanies the new breed of dominant wrestlers.

Expect more of that come August against the hard-hitting Brazilian.

Standing across from Mo in his quest to successfully defend his title for the first time will be another 205 lb. fighter with a nasty reputation in the business as a knockout specialist.
More commonly known by his nickname “Feijao”, Cavalcante (9-2-1) has finished 8 of his 9 victims via KO or TKO. Feijao trains out of the highly respected Black House Gym that includes UFC notables such as Anderson Silva and The Nogueira Brothers. He is currently riding a two-fight win streak that includes stoppages of Antwain Britt and Aaron Rosa after being knocked senseless at the hands of Mike Kyle during “Strkeforce: Lawler vs. Shields” in June of 2009.
