Being a fighter with name value early on has its up and downs. There’s been instant hype and exposure for Bobby Lashley ever since his MMA debut, but it’s also brought on confusion as to what caliber of opponents he should be facing at this point of his career.

After the commission rejected Yohan Banks and Showtime turned down Jimmy Ambriz, Lashley (4-0) will enter his Strikeforce debut Saturday against Wes Sims (22-12-1) — an opponent confirmed only eight days beforehand. In an exclusive interview with MMAFighting, Lashley responds to criticism that he should be fighting tougher opponents and his approach as both an MMA fighter and TNA pro wrestler.
