Apparently it happened in practice. I never knew.
Chael just mentioned it on his podcast.

Hendo has KO'd a mod on here that shall remain nameless. Don't ask. I look at the UGer with more respect, just for having been in there sparring a prime Henderson.

Well...you're not supposed to talk about practice. Crowing about catching a sub or a KO on someone in the practice room is a scumbag move.
Dan knows what's up.
Joe O'Brien -Bull shit. It's not dishonorable to talk about training sessions. Just don't name names.brahmabull81 - Also interesting to note, Chael made it sound like Dan would be even more of a legend if people knew how many big names hes KOd in practice. Dan just doesnt talk about practice.No respectable human being talks about what goes on in training in any combat sport. The only thing that matters it was goes on fight night.
I hope this thread becomes one big thread of awesome Dan Henderson stories.
Dan Henderson told me that Santa wasn't real.
elcornjr - I hope this thread becomes one big thread of awesome Dan Henderson stories.I'll start..
In 1995, Randy and Henderson cleaned house on five bouncers in Buckhead (ATL)–it was a brutal bloodbath and took about 90 seconds, max. I was with them, and believe me when I tell you it was total carnage. It started when Randy pushed Dan into a car–just horseplay–outside a bar, and the doormen started talking ****. One of them grabbed a baseball bat and was acting like he was going to swing. So, Randy and Dan squared up.
After a few moments of banter–Hendo told the dude he was going to shove the bat up his a.ss–Randy suddenly lunged at the dude with the bat, who immediately tucked tail and retreated into the bar with Randy on his heels. Henderson and I remained outside and Dan literally mowed through two of the four remaining bouncers–a fourth friend and I pitched on the last two. One of the guys Dan lit up tried to run away, and Dan would let him go for a few steps, and then beat him down. This lasted for about a block–I know, because I had to track him down so we could elude the police, and was literally a trail of blood on the street. Then, when I went to get Randy out of the bar, I saw that he had destroyed the place by repeatedly picking the bouncer up and tossing him into tables and across the bar.
Dan had just picked up some chick 20 minutes earlier, and she was just horrified, but ended up running from the police with us. We tossed her over chain link fences and brick walls, and by the time we got to our car, her dress was in tatters and she was just livid. Keep in mind, this was two years before either guy fought in MMA. I should also point out that I’ve known Dan for nearly 20 years and Randy almost 15, and it’s the only time I’ve ever seen either guy in a street f!ght. The dude with the bat just set them off.
Best part is, Randy was interviewing to be the head coach for the U.S. Greco team, and he was out to dinner with the executives the following night. In the middle of dinner, a cop shows up at his table with the manager, and they say that Randy has to leave. When the USA Wrestling attorney asks why, they said that it was because Randy and some buddies had destroyed the place the night before and a.ssaulted their security staff. Turns out it was the same place! Luckily, they just booted Randy and no charges were filed. 100% true.

Hendo is the only fighter I can think of that was a legitimate threat to the champions in 3 different weight classes. Plug him in at at Middle, Light Heavy or Heavy and he was either the favorite or it was a pickem fight.
And this was true for at least a decade
In for Hendo legends
Damn fine post CRE
in.for awesome Hendo stories.
There is one involving him and a scooter that was pretty epic...

I mentioned this in another thread. Brian Stann, WITHOUT NAMING WHO (respectfully), said this about Hendo and what happened in a training session he witnessed:
"They just don't make 'em this tough. Dan can knock you out by punching you in the Ass......I once saw Henderson, with the big padded gloves on, KO a guy in training while Dan was sprawling backwards. That's how hard this guy hits. He's fought 11 (actually 12 since this was before Bisping became champ) current or former UFC champs in his career. And this is a guy who is smaller than most MWs. I've trained with him and he is a much smaller guy than me. And he's spent a legitimate portion of his career at LHW. He just doesn't care. He loves to compete. He's even fought as high as HW, being the only one to knock out one of the greatest ever - the greatest HW of all time in Fedor. This is just one tough dude who loves to draw a line on that canvas and dare you to cross it."
Can I have some more please?
