COLUMBUS, Ohio – This is the Strikeforce: Feijao vs. Henderson live blog for Rafael “Feijao” Cavalcante vs. Dan Henderson, the light heavyweight championship main event at the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio.
Feijao (10-2, 3-1 Strikeforce), defends his 205-pound title for the first time since upsetting Muhammed “King Mo” Lawal at Strikeforce: Houston last August with a third-round TKO, handing Lawal his first career loss. Feijao owns all 10 of his wins by stoppage – nine knockouts, one submission – and has never gone to a decision.
Henderson (26-8, 1-1 Strikeforce), a two-time Olympian and former two-division Pride champion, is coming off a knockout of Renato “Babalu” Sobral in December. Prior to that, he lost his Strikeforce debut to Jake Shields, challenging for his middleweight title and losing by decision after a dominant first round. Henderson left the UFC for Strikeforce, after three straight wins, when his contract expired.
