Strikeforce will host a conference call at 1 p.m. ET to promote Strikeforce: Fedor vs. Henderson. Scheduled to appear on the call are former Pride heavyweight champion Fedor Emelianenko, current Strikeforce light heavyweight champion Dan Henderson, current Strikeforce women's bantamweight champ Marloes Coenen, and Miesha Tate. Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker will also participate.

Follow Mike Fagan on Twitter for live updates, and check back here after the call for a full recap.

Emelianenko and Henderson will officially meet at heavyweight, despite rumors that the bout would take place at light heavyweight or a 220-pound catchweight. Emelianenko is on a two-fight losing streak, the first of his career, after dropping fights to Fabricio Werdum and Antonio Silva. Henderson won the Strikeforce light heavyweight title from Rafael Cavalcante in his last fight.

Coenen is the women's bantamweight champion, and she defended that title with a dramatic fourth-round submission victory over Liz Carmouche in March. Tate is on a five-fight winning streak, but has been out of action since last August. Coenen and Tate were supposed to meet in March, but a knee injury forced her to pull out from the card.

Strikeforce: Fedor vs. Henderson takes place on July 30 at 10 p.m. ET at the Sears Centre in Hoffman Estates, Illinois.
