hendo hasnt earned a title shot
but bisping didnt earn his either
would be great to see hendo ko him again, but its unlikely at this stage. thats why i dont want to see it.
rockhold or weidiman will get that belt back quick

George_Sonnen -All you fast food fight fans need to get a grip. The only rematch that makes sense is a 3rd Rockhold fight, otherwise it's Weidman or Jacare. Not a 45 year old man, who if it wasn't for a perfectly placed improvised elbow, barely got out of his last fight, who has gone 3 - 6 in his last 9 fights, who hasn't put 2 wins together since 2011. You are all the problem with MMA matchmaking at the moment and the fast food shit we are being fed like the McGregor vs Diaz rematch. Realty, check yours.
You made this exact same post in a few Bisping vs Hendo II threads now.
Vagina, Check yours.
cfochs -this is the UFC, since when does that matter ?He is 3-6 in his last 9 fights. How is that deserving of a title shot?
If they get it on 200 I'm in
Since when does merit get you a title shot in the UFC ? How many threads have their been begging for Nick to get a shot? Look at Chael he didn't deserve it against Jones. That was Dans spot then he got hurt. Wiedman is hurt Jacare is hurt. Rockhold just got KO'd and should have a 90 day suspension. Either Mike sits on the belt for 6 months or him and Dan get that money. I don't see another plausible scenario here.
What am I missing?
cfochs -Because he's Hendo you fagbag. Geez I can't deal with the dorks around here sometimes...He is 3-6 in his last 9 fights. How is that deserving of a title shot?
mada - The whole mentality that you have to fight the highest ranked opponent every single time is a problem for mma. Tuneup fights exist for a reason. MMA is too much of a shark tank imo. We'd have more stars if guys were built up and managed properly. Instead we have guys 12-0, 14-2, etc. as champs and some being called the best ever. To outside observers it looks silly and makes them think this isn't a skill based sport, but rather just a cage fight."Circle right! Circle right!"
I have no problem with Bisping fighting Henderson. Bisping should run circles around him at this point and if he can't then he doesn't deserve to be the champ anyway.
Shy Guy -RKing85 - Not interested.Agreed.
Dan is an all time great but in no way does this fight makes sense, especially considering he is on the fence on his retirement. The MW division is already murky enough.
I really don't want to see 45 year old Hendo get KO'd by Bisping. Even if he wins, how long could he hold the belt at his age?
Isn't hendo currently a free agent?
Hendo vs Carvalho - make it happen Coker!!!!
mix headroom -I really don't want to see 45 year old Hendo get KO'd by Bisping. Even if he wins, how long could he hold the belt at his age?
Yes please make it happen..!
Seeing Hendo become a UFC champ would be unreal (like Randy all over again). The fact he'd get to do it by knocking Bisping unconscious again would just be a bonus.

ILoveTeamCyborg -DyldoWilly - If someone else got a title shot that was unranked everyone would be screaming bloody murder. Just because its Dan Henderson and he has had an awesome career doesnt mean he should get a title shot coming off one win. He had his gifted shot against Jones and he unfortunately got injured."He had his gifted shot against Jones and he unfortunately got injured."
You really are a dildo considering he was on a 4 fight tear including knocking out Babalu, Feijao, and FEDOR before edging Shogun in one of the best mma fights of all time.
Yeah, he wasn't gifted anything with that title shot against JBJ. Only time I recall him ever being injured and having to pull out before any of his 46 fights and unfortunately it had to be before this one.
That 4 fight win streak was one of the most impressive there has ever been. Became the Strikeforce LHW champ w/ his devastating KO win over then top 10 Feijao who spun around after the H-bomb and landed face first on the canvas , almost killed Babalu, became the only man to ever KO Fedor, and won Fight of the Year over a legend in Rua, in what was one of the greatest fights ever.
I still remember after Dan's win over Shogun, Dana White being asked who he would fight next. Hendo and Dana have butted heads plenty of times. And still, Dana said something along the lines of: "Based off the streak he is on and that epic win over Rua - Dan Henderson can fight whoever the hell he wants at this point."
Bring on Bisping.
War Hendo!
ttt
Yes
Thingading -Okay I agree he earned that shot, "gifted" was abit of an over reach and i apologise for my choice of words. That still doesnt change my stance on him getting a shot now. He had his chance when he earned one and got injured, then a couple more chances to get straight back to a title fight but came up short his next couple of fights.ILoveTeamCyborg -DyldoWilly - If someone else got a title shot that was unranked everyone would be screaming bloody murder.

Same ending and Hendo retires as champ.
ranier wolfcastle -Uhhhh? It's unlikely he'd KO Bisping at this stage in his career? Even though he just stone cold KOd Lombard at this stage in his career?
