Dan Henderson wins by Unanimous Decision
Please feel free to post here before, during, and after the fight!
WAR TOQUINHO!
Where does Hendo's career go if he loses?
OuTkAsTTTTT69 - UFC.com has Palhares @ 15-1 Fight finder has him at 8-1... so which one is it??
Sherdog probably didn't include his amateur fights? Im not sure.
I will go with Dan.

Henderson. Should be a good fight.
TOQUINHO.
Decision Dan by UD.
Every time I think about this fight I remember watching Dan holding on for dear life from submission attempt after submission attempt against Nog. And I know Minotauro is bigger and more experienced in MMA, but Toquinho's submission skills are certainly comparable, and he seems to be as aggressive at looking for the finish (look at all his leglocks, for gods' sakes!).
There's no doubt Dan has more than one edge in this fight, but I just think Palhares can get him down somehow and work his magic.
HENDERSON!
Hendo by KO.
ARS - This fight makes me neeeervous.... I don't want to see Hendo have to leave the UFC!
He hasn't won in the UFC in over 10 years. 2 of his wins are, IMO, robbery wins over Newton and Goes.
Samoa.

Dana White would be an idiot to dump him...
They should start him off and let him knock some people out, give him Cote, Marquardt, Kampmann etc..
There are only a few people who can beat Henderson but it seems like Dana is feeding him to them

UFC had matt serra at 16-4 or whatever his record is, but fight finder only has 9 wins. but i guess UFC includes like non-regulated underground fights too. cause serra had those string of "submission wrestling" fights in NY, which was just mma undercover.
Not a good matchup for Hendo. With that said, Dan via KO
Lets Go Dan!
is palhares really that sick in bjj?
I took Hendo.
Hell yeah coming out to Lunatic Fringe.
