Anderson Silva vs. Dan Henderson part deux? It needs to happen and it needs to happen now, according to MMA Mania head honcho Thomas Myers. Don't think so? He tells you why right here.

henderson belongs at 205
Only reason this is a discussion is because there is nobody else to fight silva…

TOM! my main man! say it aint sooo buddy!
nothing in mma will angry me more then Henderson fighting anyone at middleweight! he has always pretty much sucked as a middleweight, but is a beast at LHW!
Lhw division needs him too!
its a diservice to the fans and to henderson to have him fight at middlweight!
he performs 10X better at LHW.
Only way I will be down to see Silva vs. Anderson is if we say FUCK the titles, lets bang it out at 205lbs. That is the only scenario that this fight would interest me!
i have zero desire to see Henderson fight anyone at middleweight!
personally just match hendo up with Machida, and give the next dude a title shot after suga!
Agreed, mr 19.

Unless this fight happens at 205 then no
There’s no point for henderson fighting Silva other then to have silva fight someone.
…which to first two comments are said so uh….yeah lol
If silva fights at 205 why would he fight henderson?
Its so many other good match-ups for silva at that weight
"Light from the sun continues to shine in my world,all darkness has passed.Even when the sunsets there's a constant spotlight on me"-letter19
Agreed.
The only reason for Silva to be fighting at 205 is to make a run for a title. Dan Henderson isn’t in the UFC LHW title picture. And Silva doesn’t want to make a run at 205. Silva beating Hendo again, at any weight, does nothing.
Silva probably has 3-5 fights before he retires. I’d like to see him face some dudes he hasn’t beaten already. With the exception of a roided-up Sonnen (whom Silva stopped anyway), no one has shown anything they can use to win a rematch. Maybe Bisping and Stann can win their fights and become “legitimate” challengers.
LOMBARD
he said hes gonna knock Andersons Head off lol! UFC needs to get him in!

Mr. Padded record can't beat Silva.
"Sakuraba beats Silva majority of the time IMO" - "striker" David Emerson
He can't beat Silva....but he could probably compete with him
…what’s up with this padded record business? Is it not impressive that he’s beating everyone put in front of him? What MMA fighter has a resume filled with victories over the best of the best? Damn…I don’t understand how someone can recognize a fighter is talented but then say, well, his record is padded….well in that case, it just means he’s beating everyone he is supposed to beat
Fedor "The Can Crusher" Emeilianko IS NOT THE BEST HW EVER , in fact he sucks! he has the most padded record in the history of any combat sport, scratch that in the history of any sport. He has not changed as a fighter , he is still just as good as he was then, only difference is he isn’t fighting freaks and nobodies, I , along with many others have been duped into believing he is great, when clearly he is NOT! -I hate you the Dragon...one day
Does anyone know when Thiago Silva is eligible to fight again? I kind of miss that guy........
Well he could try fighting at least top 20 level guys on a regular basis.
I just don’t like how he destroys cans and then talks crap, He’s very unproven.
"Sakuraba beats Silva majority of the time IMO" - "striker" David Emerson
He's an MMA fighter-raging testosterone causes you to say things, but he's not a shit talker
….I think he’d be a top 5 UFC MW anyway

Personally I think he can be top ten.
But he hasn’t beaten anyone to throw him up in the ranks. You can beat as many weak fighters as you want and still not be top ten. The only way to move up, is to beat guys above you, if you beat down on guys below you, you stay in the same spot(Unless someone else is competing with you for the number one spot in a different yet equal organization).

Bisping is top 5...he hasn't beaten anyone top 10....same with Vitor....

Vitor beat Rich Franklin.
That’s a bigger name then anyone Hector beaten.
"Sakuraba beats Silva majority of the time IMO" - "striker" David Emerson
You can't really fault Hector for this though. When has he ever turned a fight down?
Not his fault most good MWs are in the UFC. Although Shlemenko and him had a pretty good fight.

Franklin fight was at 195lbs and Franklin wasn't ranked in the top 10 for MWs at the time

More of a top ten guy then Hector has fought.
And that was my point.
"Sakuraba beats Silva majority of the time IMO" - "striker" David Emerson
Kay yeah makes sense...
…but yooo, there are plenty of guys that made a name for themselves fighting outside of the UFC against guys that weren’t highly ranked (like Carlos Condit and Anderson Silva) and they came to the UFC and started smashing folks…we just need to see Hector in the UFC to determine where he stands I guess….but we can’t dispute that he’s a highly skilled dude…and he trains at ATT so it’s not like he’s not training with dudes that are in the UFC and top ranked

Hector gasses after 2 minutes. top guys in the uFC will weather his initial storm and then gang bang him!
hector needs to seriously get his cardio up if he ever wants to make real noise in the ufc!
Padded Record?
So your telling us that most of Hector Lombards wins are against cans?
Ok.

He just needs to be signed up to prove it to people
no losses in 24 fights has to be acknowledged by the big boys surely, hasnt lost in 5 years just like anderson so why not sign him up and put him in there straight away!
Whats is there to lose?

As for Leban, that’s kind of hard because being a good slugger can only be so good. It turns your slugging chances from 50/50 to 60/40, Still not odds I would suggest.

lombard has pathetic cardio! all the skills in the world dont mean shit if you dont have a gas tank that can back them up!
until he fixes his gas tank, he cant make any real noise in the ufc
I’d argue that Henderson is in the UFC LHW title picture. He’s the reigning Strikeforce LHW champion, he’s a legend in the sport, and he’s coming off a dominant performance over the greatest HW of all time. If/when Hendo signs with the UFC again, I would not be surprised in the slightest to see him earn a title shot with a win over a Shogun/Machida/Rashad type.
by Alpha & Omega on Sep 4, 2011 5:25 PM EDT up reply actions
Yeah Hendo is in the LHW title picture.....
..if he came to the UFC right now, he’d either fight Rashad for number 1 contender (but I think Rashad really deserves the next shot) OR he’d fight Machida or Shogun at the end of the year, which would set him up for a title shot next spring/summer….there are other options for Joe Silva though, but Hendo isn’t getting any younger so the sooner the better……

Hendo is very much in the title picture at 205
He wil either get an immediate title shot or at MOST fight one person before fighting for the title. Hendo also should’ve never taken the Anderson fight at 185 when he did it was a very stupid idea and his gas tank was what failed him, hes back at 205 and a few years older(185 aint happening anymore) I got Hendo all day at 205 over Andy.

Anderson wins easily.
Hendo’s roid rage in the 1st round won’t get him far.
RobDeezy88 , ps3! Tito Ortiz = God !
ok believe whatever you want.
I don’t, his ability to perform at the highest level still at 41 is a little ridiculous and unreal to me. I’d get it if he got by on superior technique, cause those athletes can still remain successful when they get old and their speed and explosiveness is gone. But i guess since they only get tested when they fight, they get a free pass all yr long to take whatever they want to stay young
RobDeezy88 , ps3! Tito Ortiz = God !
But you always base your opinions..
Off assuming and no proof at all. Are you just a hater or did you really convince yourself that passing a drug test before every fight and always being tested means nothing?

by djn720 on Sep 4, 2011 9:13 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
Oh yeah I forgot
Wasn’t that a catchweight? I thought Franklin should’ve got the decision but whatever. I just think hendo gets too many immediate title shots. He comes to the UFC and lost a lhw title fight to rampage, then in his next fight he gets a title shot against silva and gets smoked. Then he wins a couple fights an goes to strike force and gets an immediate title shot and gets beat by shields. Then he gets another title shot and finally wins and now he wants ANOTHER title shot in the UFC where he has never won a lhw fight ever.
by djn720 on Sep 4, 2011 9:41 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
i think hendo is in the picture. he is 6 for 7 since he fought anderson silva, the only loos coming to jake shields when he gassed
if he is ever going to get a shot to avenge his loss to anderson it needs to happen now. make the fight at 205, the winner gets a title shot. if anderson wins it sets up a superfight, and if hendo wins he will have beaten fedor and anderson silva! no one will be able to deny his shot at the lhw title. i also think that hendo at 41 and 205 might be too much to handle for anderson silva.

Agreed...
Silva would clown Dan at 185. Without question. And I am not convinced that Dan should be granted an immediate title shot at either 185 or 205. I like Dan, but he needs to fight a 205 top tier fighter in the UFC before considering giving him a title shot.
Let him bang it out against Machida or Rua. That way the winner of that fight fights the winner of Shad vs. Jones/Rampage.

possibly 2.
but we all know that was crap. that was a dancing class for andy. andy didn’t feel challenged.
the same thing was beginning to happen against okami. after the 2nd knock down andy was hesitant to follow him to the ground and finish him off. it looked to me like andy wanted to be in a fight, not rolling through okami. andy lazily finished him off but it looked to me like he only did that because of the shit he got over the maia fight. finishing all of the division off is no fun for him anymore. beating these guys is like taking candy from a baby. there’s nothing left for him. the only one left to beat (again) is chael, and this time chael gets ko’d in the first round.
gsp’s situation is different. nick diaz will expose some holes in his game and lose via decision. then condit comes along and puts gsp to sleep

Yeah
…if GSP doesn’t fight Anderson after his rematch with Chael then Anderson should just retire…there is really nothing left for him to do, except for the fickle fight requests of us fans like Anderson vs Hector or Anderson vs Bones (which will never happen)….
Jason Macdonald predicts that Anderson and GSP will never fight, and I think I have to agree with him….but GSP is in a similar boat, if GSP beats Diaz and then Condit (if Condit beats Penn) then he reeeeeally needs to fight Anderson….plus the timing for a super fight would be perfect

Bones would need to win at least like 4 title defenses before even being considered on Andy's level in terms of greatness
…and Andy doesn’t have that many years left unfortunately…I mean, he could fight until he’s 40, but what is the point? He’s already made history…he’s already cemented his legacy…if anything it’s best for him to stop now as opposed to waiting til he’s old and wrinkly and Bones is in his muthafucking killa prime…..that just doesn’t make sense for Andy….and honestly, as it stands today….I think if Andy and Bones fought right now, Andy would work him and shatter that aura that surrounds Bones….I mean, Andy is on some neeeeext ish right now…don’t get me wrong, Bones is good, one of my favs….

Honeslty, and I know I'll get flamed for this, I though the same thing about the Sonnen fight.
I think he was trying to make a point that he could use his “Nogueria-happy-meal-black-belt” in BJJ to tap him and he did.

ok, Henderson gets the round.
i remember watchin it thinkin “he’s not doin much”…but it was enough to win the round. Henderson took him down at the 2:52 mark and held him in half guard til there was 30 seconds left, then got sidemount, and then shortly after Anderson got his guard back.
Fighting solves everything.
Even if he didn't do anything.
you don’t win a round by being smothered. you guys can’t go around judging a fight by your own system them claiming a fighter won a certain round.

not sure, but guyver may have been agreeing with you.
he’s sayin Anderson couldn’t win the round by being smothered.
Fighting solves everything.
I was talking to someone else.
And yeah Two_words, you pretty much said it for me. And i have my own judging opinion, but I don’t go around swearing by it because I know it’s not perfect just like everyone else and more importantly, I can’t change what the judges do go by.

your right...
i just thought when i first watched the round, that Andy did enough standing to warrant the 10 points…but after watchin it again, Dan won the round.
do you think Shields or Kos took any rounds from GSP?
Fighting solves everything.
Hendo definitely won the 1st round...but the rest is history
…that’s the thing with Andy’s fights….his opponents get a chance to finish him….BUT THEY JUST CAN’T…..the second Andy gets an opportunity to finish a fight, he does just that….and in spectacular fashion….that’s what separates him from everyone else!
Fedor "The Can Crusher" Emeilianko IS NOT THE BEST HW EVER , in fact he sucks! he has the most padded record in the history of any combat sport, scratch that in the history of any sport. He has not changed as a fighter , he is still just as good as he was then, only difference is he isn’t fighting freaks and nobodies, I , along with many others have been duped into believing he is great, when clearly he is NOT! -I hate you the Dragon...one day
Does anyone know when Thiago Silva is eligible to fight again? I kind of miss that guy........
i think if it wasn't Anderson on the bottom, the ref woulda stood em up.
Fighting solves everything.
Geno:
what is behind the gradual introduction and possible merger between mania and nation? tom’s setting the stage for something. is there an offer on the table for someone to buy out mania? and if so why wouldn’t that person or entity make him sign a contract stating that he will not establish another business similar to mania (conflict of interest for the buying party)? has tom become a foot soldier of sbnation and given the task of establishing another mma site? that’s smart being that FOX is about to open the floodgates of fans to pour into mma. or is tom going to kill off mania in order to bring the posters here to over there? perhaps it’s his opportunity to weed out the trolls like me.
there’s a tactic being used here. email me if you don’t want the peasants to see the real reason. i’m not the average 25 year old mma fan that pounds mountain dew and sits in a car chair on the floor playing video games. i know what the fuck i’m doing and can sense something happening here. have tom get ahold of me if he needs any advice. it’s a dog eat dog world out there and i know how to be the dog who eats as opposed to the dog who is eaten.

But yeah that appears likely.
I'm better then whatever your best at. Come get some!
You sure aren't the average MMA fan.....

if this fight is at 205 it is a great fight. i doubt hendo cares as much about another belt as he does avenging his loss
to anderson. the winner gets a title shot. if anderson wins it sets up a superfight, and if hendo wins he will have beaten fedor and anderson silva! no one will be able to deny his shot at the lhw title. i also think that hendo at 41 and 205 might be too much to handle for anderson silva.

Geno, Really wish you would stop linking articles to that shit spam site
I mean seriously, WTF? Are they making you do it?
I don't know how Anderson Silva can even walk around right now with all the nuthuggers out there. Can't wait til Chael fucks him up in their next fight. Hopefully he goes over and slaps ed "open mouth" soares afterwards as well.
I'd love to see Hendo v Anderson one more time.
Love em both and still think Hendo can cause the upset. I think at 41 he may even have improved a bit…..I know that sounds ridiculous but he is looking dam solid. Hendo is getting older though and now is the time for a rematch before he hits the wall.
