UFC Announces Dan Henderson vs Anderson Silva


The UFC announced at the post fight press conference that Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva will face Dan Henderson in March next year.

Heres the FULL ARTICLE from MMAweekly.

My Take- Man I'm counting the days for this fight to happen, what a war this should be. Both have ridiculous chins so a knockout is not likely, but both have serious power so you never know. The big question I think would be is if the wrestler Hendo will want to take Anderson down and hold him there or will Anderson's muay thai be too much. In any case there is plenty of time to dissect every angle of this fight, so for now I'm just really excited because this will one of the best main events in UFC history.

how will dan look at 185? anderson is pretty powerful. i know dan is strong but he sure threw franklin around like a rag doll.

i think this fight will be absolutely amazing. looking back at the hendo/rampage fight-- that was quite a war, so i'm thinking henderson will be a hell of a test for silva. this was a must fight for the ufc, because it didn't look like anybody was going to be challenging silva any time soon. this fight will be awesome and i can't wait to see all the speculation in the next few months about how it will go.

I'm glad Dan finally consented to drop back down in weight. I wonder how many dollar signs and f-bombs Dana had to drop?

this is a fight i have wanted to see ever since anderson knocked off rich! I thought it would be hendo that would take out rich and gain the belt...now i'm thinking that he will take it from anderson-i think it will be a good fight but hendo wins...

hendo is much smarter and more versatile than franklin...i see him taking it to silva.

anderson is so dominate yet he always seems to be the underdog against american fighters =/

mr. incredible said...

well endocet325 i will have to disagree...i don't think anderson has been the underdog in any of his fights except maybe silva-franklin 1. this guy has shown dominance in all of his ufc fights! untill his next...hope i'm not proven wrong!
