Strikeforce: Fedor vs. Henderson was a mixed martial arts event held by Strikeforce. The event took place on July 30, 2011 at Sears Centre in Hoffman Estates, Illinois.[1]
Background
A planned bout between Rafael Cavalcante and Ovince St. Preux at this event was later scrapped from the card[2]
Evangelista Santos was originally scheduled to fight Tarec Saffiedine at this event.[3] However, Saffiedine was pulled from the bout and replaced by Paul Daley.[4] Soon afterwards, Santos was forced out of the bout with Daley due to a shoulder injury.[5] Undefeated welterweight Tyron Woodley stepped in to replace Santos against Daley.[6] Meanwhile, Saffiedine was moved to a bout with Scott Smith at this event.[7]
Roger Gracie was originally scheduled to face Muhammed Lawal at the event.[8] However, the bout was rescheduled for Strikeforce World Grand Prix: Barnett vs. Kharitonov that September after Gracie suffered a training injury.[9] Lawal won the rescheduled bout by first round KO.
Ronda Rousey and Sarah D'Alelio were originally scheduled to fight on this card,[10] but their bout was later moved to Strikeforce Challengers: Gurgel vs. Duarte.
Lyle Beerbohm was originally scheduled to face Gesias Cavalcante, but was replaced by Bobby Green on July 19, 2011.[11]
The bout between Marloes Coenen and Miesha Tate was originally scheduled to be for the Women's Welterweight belt, but it was renamed to a Women's Bantamweight Championship bout by Zuffa to achieve consistency with the weight class names in the promotion. [12]
With Fedor Emelianenko's departure from Strikeforce following this event, this was the last Strikeforce event to be co-promoted by his promotional team M-1 Global.
