Dan Henderson Is Next For Title Shot At 205 or 185 Confirms UFC Boss
“Yes, Dan Henderson will get the winner of that fight (Jones vs. Evans) or the winner of the Anderson Silva fight. Dan Henderson just wants a title shot. You know, there was a lot of talk about the stuff I said. Here is the thing. I offered Dan Henderson two fights. Dan Henderson wants this fight. Normally I don’t do that. Guys don’t sit around and wait and pick their fights. There’s been very specific cases where that has happened and it’s guys who have earned it or deserved it. Dan Henderson is one of those guys. Listen, Henderson has been around forever. He is forty-something years old. He has been knocking guys out left and right and if he wants to sit around and wait for this title shot, he can do it.”
After Tuesday’s UFC 146 press conference UFC president Dana White told Fight Day that Dan Henderson is next in line for a shot at either the UFC middleweight title or the UFC light-heavyweight title.
But which title should he go for?

Good call Dana…
All I know is regardless of who Hendo ends up fighting i just want to see him KO Bisping AGAIN before he retires. With the right amount of time to train and drop weight (WITHOUT BEING INJURED LIKE IN SHEILDS FIGHT) I think Hendo’s best bet would be a rematch with Andersen Silva
So what Dana is saying is that Dan Henderson is going to lose his next fight to either Jon Jones or Anderson Silva.
That’s what I’m reading.
lol i wont count hendo out. He has looked better than he has his whole career in his past few fights.
Son Dana whats hendo to lose to Silvana again, or get destroyed by Jones
Makes more sense than Bisping
Honestly id love to see hendo h-bomb either of those cocky gits!!
If he beats Silva in a rematch, he will become GOAT.
i dont see him beating rashad he has a chance of beating evans thought i just think its funny how noone is even mentioning the fact that he may be fighting rashad lol
What??? Rashad IS Evans. Goddamn, do none of you morons read what you write before you post it???
tough challenge in both departments.
if sonnen somehow beats silva, he should go to 185.
if rashad wins, go for the 205.
If silva and/or jones win…..it will make for an epic fight, but he will lose both of those challenges.
hendo is the best P4P of all time.
He’s got a better chance against Silva. He’s too small and not good enough on the ground to beat Jones.
Hendo is tougher than y’all give him credit for.
Jonny Bones would struggle to defeat him (if he can beas Shad)
I know Hendo’s tough but Jones wins his fights on the ground which is where Hendo happens to be his weakest.
If Dan wins that title fight, wow, I mean, the guy has gotta be in the top 5 ever!
STFU you homo… do you really expect anyone to reply to your troll gay ass with a decent respectable comment with the lack of respect you’ve shown and shit slinging you’ve been doing here?.
Now I know why you were banned, for being ****in’ lame!
@Mo +1
I am not sure if you are referring to me, my friend, but I was not banned from this site.
These are a reference to someone else not you.
Oh, okay. Thanks. I saw islandjunkie commenting to Pedro about it, but I don’t know who he was referring to.
