''Strikeforce: Feijao vs. Henderson'', was a mixed martial arts event held by Strikeforce. It took place on March 5, 2011 at the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio, United States.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Columbus: Feijao vs Henderson )〕 The event was the first that the organization has hosted in the state of Ohio and coincided with the Arnold Sports Festival, which annually draws up to 150,000 sports fans. ==Background== A rubber-match between Tim Kennedy and Jason Miller was expected for this event.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title="Mayhem" Miller vs. Tim Kennedy III no longer happening at "Strikeforce: Ohio" )〕 However, Miller was pulled from the card for unknown reasons, and was replaced with Luke Rockhold. Only a few days after announcing the Rockhold/Kennedy match-up, it was reported that Rockhold had been removed and was replaced with Melvin Manhoef. The Kennedy/Rockhold match would later headline Strikeforce: Rockhold vs. Kennedy in July 2012, where Rockhold defended his then-Strikeforce Middleweight Championship by unanimous decision. Jessica Eye was scheduled to make her Strikeforce debut at this event against former title contender Jan Finney, but the two could not agree upon a fight weight so the fight was called off.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jessica Eye off "Strikeforce: Columbus" card )〕 Marloes Coenen was originally set to defend her title against number one contender Miesha Tate at this event, but on February 23, it was announced that Tate had to withdraw from the contest and her replacement would be Liz Carmouche.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Tate out at "Strikeforce: Feijao vs. Henderson," Carmouche challenges Coenen for belt )〕 The Coenen/Tate bout was rescheduled for Strikeforce: Fedor vs. Henderson on July 30th, where Tate won the title via fourth round submission.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Strikeforce adds Coenen-Tate, Gracie-Lawal )〕 Jorge Gurgel was originally set to fight promotional newcomer Tyler Combs at this event, but Combs injured himself five days before the event and had to withdraw from the bout.
