I like Thatch vs Gunny. Two big hype trains coming off their first losses. Makes for an exciting fight and gives one a chance to rebound.

Do you mean Thatch's first loss in the UFC?

I'd like the Story fight so much, but he just started training at the lab with Benson a year ago.

@Rappin I actually thought he was undefeated until last night. Dunno why I thought that.

**** forgot the Eliiot fight. 
Hallman will be will be back in time to fight Michel. He was suspended nine months. Shoudl be back to fight by June and that's likely when Prazeres fights again. Patrick hgad surgery in Sepetember he should be able to fight soon, no? At least three months for Escudero. Lawlor is actually dead, I forgot.

I'd like to see Henderson/Story. I'd like to see Magny fight Thiago Alves.. or Rick Story. There's some good fights to make at the moment in the 170 lb division.

If Benson stays at WW give him Rory or T-Wood. Benson should be fighting top guys no matter what weight class he's in. The Story fight isn't intriguing. Benson would wreck him inside of the 1st round. 

Magny vs Pitbull would be a good fight for both of those guys. It makes sense.

I liked the way that Bensosn fought this one. He unerstood where he was at an advantage and where he was at a disadvantage, and he kept a tremendous pace throughout, and took advantage first of  a split second opportunity for a takedown, and later in the round he snatched the RNC just as deftly. 

That being said, his win came by way of exploiting his opponents weaknesses, and the difference in size was certainly evident during the standing exchanges, so I´m still not sure Henderson will be able to deal to be competitive with top contenders at welterweight.

Thatch against Gunny would also be cool since one is a way better striker and the other is a way better grappler. A fight like that could play out a lot of different ways.

Why am i a troll account for saying a match up really starting to bug me how some people call you a troll when you have your own view on things

Benson vs Hendricks  would be a good match up i bet many people here would of called someone a troll if they said Edger vs Faber would happen

Two former champs going to wars whats not to like but lets all sit and talk about Mein vs Thatch

And i know i have alot to learn about MMA but it seems alot of other people here do also 
Hendricks could not even defend his belt while Henderson is one of the best lightweights to ever hold a UFC title   and at welterweight i think Henderson could become alot like GSP

Why are people still talking about Henderson staying at WW? He got all he could handle from a guy not even in the top 15 and now he could beat Hendricks and "become GSP"? 

Let's be honest. He outwrestles LWs because he is bigger and stronger than them. Just about every fight Joe drools about the size of his thighs lol. That won't happen at WW. He had a tough time outwrestling Thatch who is known to have suspect wrestling. He had to wait until Thatch was worn out. Henderson gets crushed by pretty much any top ten WW and just about every one of them is a much better wrestler than Thatch.

Also throw in the fact that Thatch was preparing to face a karate fighter and suddenly had to face a wrestler/grappler. Call me crazy but I think he would prepare differently if he had a full camp for Henderson.

Anyone here think Henderson can outwrestler Johnny Hendricks? I don't even like Big Rigg at all but he would dominate Henderson.
