@soccerkick if that was the case subs would be totally meaningless as if it is successful you win, so points have to be given

I was wrong again on this one... and happy to be.  Henderson has improved a ton... he looks some much stronger and more complete as a fighter now than a year or two ago!

Well, Bendo impressed me there. I see a title shot coming his way. I like Jim Miller but it looks like he will have to wait.

Henderson is such a great guy. He's not asking for a title shot, he's asking for his teammates to be brought into the UFC. Now that's awesome!!!!
