There was big news in the Mma world today as legendary Pride and Strikeforce champ Dan Henderson is apparently heading down in weight.
Hendo has hit hard times in his current Ufc run, and was last seen being rag-dolled at light heavyweight by possible title challenger Daniel Cormier in May. After the bout, fans and media pundits alike speculated about a drop back to middleweight for Hendo, who once competed against Anderson Silva for Silva’s middleweight title.
Hendo, however, will likely be 44 years old the next time he sets foot in the ring, and the weight cut to middleweight may be daunting, though he did weigh in at 199lbs for the Cormier bout – under the light heavyweight mark of 205lbs.
If Hendo retains his power at middleweight, it could give the beloved vet once last shot at the belt.
