A middleweight rematch between former Strikeforce champion Cung Le (6-1) and Scott Smith (17-6) is under consideration for Strikeforce's planned June 26 event at the HP Pavilion in San Jose, California. News of the bout was first reported by MMAFighting.com.

The two first met at Strikeforce: "Evolution" in December, where Smith scored a third round knockout win over Le.

Le was winning on all the judge's scorecards and looked to be on his way to an easy decision, before Smith pulled off another miracle come-from-behind win sending Le crashing to the mat with a powerful right hand leading to a flurry and eventual stoppage.

Prior to the loss, Le won the first six bouts of his four-year professional MMA career, all with Strikeforce. All six wins came via KO or TKO, with notable wins over Tony Fryklund, Jason Von Flue , Sam Morgan and Frank Shamrock.

The win moved Smith to 3-1 in his last four bouts. He scored back-to-back knockout wins over Terry Martin and Benji Radach in his first two fights with Strikeforce. His lone loss over that span came in his previous bout against Nick Diaz at Strikeforce: "Lawler vs. Shields" in June 2009.

Smith has fought for other notable promotions during his eight-year career such as the UFC, WEC, EliteXC and Gladiator Challenge. He has finished all 17 of his career wins, including 14 by TKO or KO and holds notable victories over the likes of Kyle Noke, Tim Kennedy, Tim McKenzie and Pete Sell.

The June 26 Strikeforce event could be headlined by a heavyweight bout between top ranked heavyweight Fedor Emelianenko and Fabricio Werdum. The bout is far from official though, as Strikeforce is still negotiating with M-1 and Emelianenko over a new re-worked contract.
