H-Bomb! Coming soon! Dan Henderson will get next title shot at light heavyweight or middleweight. UFC President Dana White confirmed suspicions regarding the next light heavyweight or middleweight title shot going to Dan Henderson.

@lopati i was rooting for hendo by decision in that one.  I dont like seeing shogun lose but hendo is the man, when he retires the sport will be losing one of the best guys that have been and it will be a sad day.  

Heres hoping again he wins the title and then retires.  

In other news, Dan Henderson has been fighting for 15 years ago this coming June and won the UFC middleweight tournament defeating Carlos Newton and Allan Goes 14 years ago this May.

He's already fought Andy (I would give Dan a much better shot this time around...still a L) but I give him no chance against Jon Jones....even Rashad is a bad matchup. Always rooting for Hendo tho. 

What it seems like alot of people either forget or just choose not to remember is that Hendo won the first round against Silva, people talk about that fight like it was complete and utter domination when it was nothing close to that.

If the rematch does happen i don't see any reason Hendo couldn't take the belt from Silva but that doesn't even matter cause Chael is going to take it in Brazil.

I dont think winning the first RD against Silva is anything special, Silva never goes on the offense in RD1, always feels people out.


But one that note, dan is a completely different fighter than he was 5 years ago. Now, I think he would destroy Rampage.. and I think him and silva would be fun.
