Tim Kennedy is OK with curve balls.
A couple of months ago, he had rallied his troops around a fight against Jason "Mayhem" Miller at "Strikeforce: Feijao vs. Henderson." Then, Miller fell out of the picture for reasons not completely clear to him. A few weeks later, he was given another opponent: Luke Rockhold. Then, Rockhold fell out of the picture with an injury three weeks prior to the March 5 event, and he probably wouldn't have guessed who Strikeforce would slot as the third and hopefully final replacement: Melvin Manhoef.
They couldn't have picked a fighter with a more contrasting style.
