Citing a leg injury, Luke Rockhold has withdrawn from a planned matchup
with Tim Kennedy at March’s “Strikeforce: Feijao vs.
Henderson” event.
As MMAjunkie.com first reported, Dutch slugger
Melvin Manhoef will step into the open slot. Strikeforce brass today made the change official.
The bout will be featured on the Showtime-televised main card of
“Strikeforce: Feijao vs. Henderson,” which takes place March 5 at
Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio.
