Vitor Belfort told TATAME this morning that Anthony Johnson was offered to several fighters before signing to fight the “Phenom” at UFC Rio, and Dan Henderson was one of the fighters that refused this bout.
On the other hand, Henderson told TATAME that Vitor is lying.
“That’s not true, this fight was never offered to me,” Dan said through an interpreter, his BJJ coach Ricardo Feliciano. “Steroids might be killing Vitor’s neurons, he’s getting crazy to say something like that”.
Henderson fought Belfort on 2006, when Pride went to the US, and won by decision. Days later, the Brazilian tested positive for an illegal substance, 4-hydroxytestosterone.

Even if true (although I believe Dan) there's no appeal for Hendo in regards to a fight with Rumble. He just beat Shogun @ 205, Rumble would be an illogical next fight, IMO.

Reem's-obbler - Call me crazy, but the more Hendo speaks, the more I dislike him.
I'm neutral on this issue, but what was there to dislike? Vitor said something about Dan, Dan said something in return. If you think about it, there is more validity to Dan's statement.
