Dana was vague on that (title shot). Anderson has a fight coming up and it could be the winner of Maia vs Marquardt.Who knows what's going to happen, there kind of stuck. If I don't get that title fight right away, I'm going to ask to fight the top guy at 205. I don't expect to get the title shot, so I would like to fight one of the top guys there. No one in paticular, but somebody who will help me get a better step up that ladder.
@ 5:58 mark.

That would...But I could see Liddell on the receiving end of a KO. Hopefully Liddell wouldn't be as stubborn as Bisping and circle directly to Henderson's right hand.

I think Hendo will only face AS if Maia loses against Nate. The UFC can promoate Hendo vs AS better than AS vs Nate. If Maia wins he is facing AS for sure.

Hendo's KO power is scary.

I doubt Hendo would wait the year that Liddells off to fight him.

Hendo looked as good as i've seen him since coming to the UFC. He looked in shape, he didn't seem gassed (although Bisping was backpedalling the whole time). Some possible matchups for Dan
Marquardt
Franklin rematch
Jardine
Forrest
Anderson S rematch
Liddell

Somehow, I think that Bisping is starting to realize that, lol.

I personally think Nate is overhyped, and i didnt like his whole "oh, Anderson Silva hasnt fought me"...he hasnt fought THIS Nate Marquardt. Whatever dude....you lost. And for that i'd like to see Hendo open up a can of whoopass on his chin.

I'm a big Hendo fan but to think he can automatically go to 205 and get Machida/Rua is kind of stupid. I agree more with his comment about fighting someone to get him up the ladder first. Like Evans/Jackson or Bader or Cane. I'd love to see Hendo take on Luiz Cane, that would be an awesome fight!

I don't think him fighter Ryan Bader does ANYTHING for him. Bader is not a Top Contender.

all of the possibilities are awesome! I just hope Hendo has it in him to pull out the W, As much as I dislike Evans I think he would win that fight unless Hendo caught him like he did Bisping. Which is a possibilty, but with Evans footwork it'll be tough. As for the Silva rematch, how awesome would that be, but isn't Silva moving down to 185? The catchweight fight(195) with Franklin was because he is moving down and Rich is moving up. The Vitor fight wouldn't happen unless one of them moves out of thier organization. Vitor is in Affliction right now isn't he?

true, I was just naming people off the top of my head. Bader is unbeaten though so I'm sure he'll be top contender soon.
