COLUMBUS, Ohio – Even after her come from-behind-submission win over late replacement Liz Carmouche at Saturday’s “Strikeforce: Feijao vs. Henderson” event, women’s welterweight champion Marloes Coenen had nothing but praise for her opponent.
In fact, Coenen knows she may not have seen the last of the military veteran, whom she calls a “future champion.”
But with her co-main-event win, Coenen now is focused on two other opponents: Miesha Tate, whom Carmouche replaced, and Strikeforce women’s middleweight champ Cristiane “Cyborg” Santos.
