The rumor going around right now is that Jon Jones is ready for another fight. With rashad Evans having a fight already set against Phil davis that would mean that Dan Henderson would get the next title shot. And Hendo in my opinion is the guy at 205 with the best chance of taking the belt off Jon Jones.

Jon Jones will have a distinct size and reach advantage but considering that Hendo has fought HW's in the past i think that would really help him out against Jones.

Jon Jones pretty much made his rise to fame by beating wrestlers that were supposed to be better then him, but Dan Henderson's wrestling is on a whole other level and i think that if he really uses his wrestling hw would have no problem taking Jones down and beating him up while there.

Dan Henderson is on of my favorive fighters and i consider him one of if not the beat MMA fighter of all time, but all that aside i really do feel that if he comes in prepared then his chances of beating Jones are very good.

Discuss!
