UFC wants Anderson Silva vs Dan Henderson on FOX

By Guilherme Cruz Photo UFC Anderson Silva will put his belt on the line this Saturday, but the organization is already thinking on his next title defense. According to sources close to the situation, the middleweight champion is in talks with the UFC to fight Dan Henderson at UFC’s first show on FOX, scheduled to November 12, in California. Anderson, who already defeated the former Pride champion in his long UFC career, tapping him in a rear-naked choke at UFC 82, fights the highly underdog Yushin Okami this Saturday, at UFC Rio, while Henderson waits to define his future with the end of his contract with Strikeforce. Sources also indicated that if Henderson didn’t agree to move down to middleweight months after a heavyweight showdown against Fedor Emelianenko, Chael Sonnen is the option to replace him against Silva. Sonnen is set to fight Brian Stann at UFC 136, and if Henderson doesn’t take this fight, he’d be taken out to fight Anderson. Stann, on the other hand, would potentially fight Vitor Belfort. Stay tuned for more news on the UFC middleweight title picture.

I doubt this will work out, but it would be awesome if it did. I think they need to put Guida/Henderson on this card for #1 contender slot

Wow. badass.

[SPX]

Interesting.

I wouldn't mind seeing a rematch with Hendo OR Sonnen.

[poopoo333]

If this were Strikeforce, Okami would win easily and fuck this whole plan up. Nothing ever goes Strikeforce's way.

[SPX]

BTW, I think Vitor would fuck Stann up.

Hendo rematch, snore.

[SPX]

If he comes out like Super Hendo then it could be interesting.

I'm just not sure that Super Hendo and Middleweight can co-exist.

[edman5555]

I'll take Hendo by knockout for the right price.

[poopoo333]

Silva is going to get beat one of these days fucking up the whole Silva vs GSP fight.

[edman5555]

Yeah. Chael tagged him a bunch of times and Hendo packs serious power. If he can connect on Silva, he can knock him out.

Silva is going to get beat one of these days fucking up the whole Silva vs GSP fight.

That fight is a pipe dream.

[Vandelay]

silva easily wins this fight in my mind. Hendo got dropped by feijao and fedor and i dont even know what punch connected in the fedor fight. Anyways that chin isnt as sturdy as it once was, pretty soon he will go lights out and it will be ugly.

I'm just not sure that Super Hendo and Middleweight can co-exist.

This is what I think as well. The guy belongs at 205, especially at his age.

[Mr. IWS]

Im on Silva even if he fights Hendo and Chael at the same time.

[Svino]

BTW, I think Vitor would fuck Stann up.

Yeah, I do too. It's another good style matchup for Vitor.
