Strikeforce issued the following media advisory today:
Brazilian Carina Damm is having difficulty obtaining the necessary visa to travel to The United States for her participation in the STRIKEFORCE Challengers event on Friday, Aug. 13 where Damm is slated to compete in the women's welterweight (135 pounds) tournament in Phoenix, Ariz.
STRIKEFORCE is working diligently to help Carina secure a visa in time to make the trip for next month's event. In the event that she is unable to acquire a visa, however, we have identified a qualified replacement for the tournament and will release her name if Carina is officially forced to withdraw from the event. This prospective replacement has been in training camp for several weeks and is prepared to take on the task at hand.
