Tim Kennedy vs. Robbie Lawler added to July's "Strikeforce: Fedor vs. Henderson"

An intriguing middleweight bout between military hero Tim Kennedy (13-3 MMA, 3-1 SF) and slugging specialist Robbie Lawler (19-7 MMA, 2-3 SF) has been added to "Strikeforce: Fedor vs. Henderson."

Strikeforce officials today announced the bout via Twitter.

"Strikeforce: Fedor vs. Henderson" takes place July 30 at Sears Centre Arena in Hoffman Estates, Ill. The main card, including a Fedor Emelianenko vs. Dan Henderson headliner, airs on Showtime.

Strikeforce brass did not announce if Kennedy vs. Lawler will be part of the main card, but the high-profile matchup seems a certainty to feature on some form of broadcast.

Kennedy looks to build on the strength of a March win over Melvin Manhoef. Kennedy has won five of his past six fights, with the lone loss coming to current Strikeforce middleweight champion Ronaldo "Jacare" Souza.

A UFC, PRIDE and EliteXC veteran, Lawler fights for the sixth time under the Strikeforce banner. The potent striker owns first-round knockout wins over Manhoef and Matt Lindland, though he's currently looking to rebound from a submission loss in a failed attempt to unseat Souza.
