RodrigoRua Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 ... just think somebody else will replace Hendo. Im a believer on "fake injury" sometimes. Despite the fact that any fighter could get hurt and pull out of a card I also think UFC wants to make Hendos last fights more profitable as possible because lets face it, Hendo isnt a kid anymore and the competition at LHW, for Hendo, isnt getting any easier. Call me crazy but I think Hendo will "pull out", Gus comes in to face Machida AND when we last expect Anderson vs Hendo 2 will be announced. Quick reasons: 1. Hendo WILL lose to Machida and say bye bye and go back to the line. Maybe fight Shogun again for a FOX card !! 2. Anderson is looking for marktable fights (and easy too but he can choose whatever he wants because he is Anderson and guys gotta earn the rights to fight him) and Hendo would be just perfect for Anderson (also easy for UFC to sell it). 3. If Hendo goes to MW to face Anderson RIGHT NOW, he does have a great record/resume to do so since he was "the guy to fight Jones". 4. Last but not least ... I think its very weird Dana/UFC decide to have women in a main event, sorry. PS. Im not based on facts and purely on thoughts that Hendo vs Machida will not happen for many reasons !!

Junglebird Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 i agree that he could duck Machida if he wanted.... but i doubt he would fight Anderson again. Anderson is fighting Bisping/Vitor winner most likely, and a Bisping/Silva fight is marketable. Also i doubt Hendo would duck a fight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, Im also considering what Dana/UFC would "want better" PLUS a poor performance on Vitor/Bisping winner !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodrigoRua Posted December 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 UFC 151 is just still fresh in your memory. Hendo isn't getting a title shot without another win now IMO and he's faced tougher fights than Machida. No reason to think he would duck. Good point. But u know when smth is telling you that fight wont happen for x reason ? LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galvanik Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Dan has only ever pulled out of a fight once in his whole career, it's not really fair to say the dude would duck anybody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor_Obviously Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Gus said he'd fight anyone at anytime. He'd be the perfect logical replacement for either of those guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor_Obviously Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 I see this fight going to decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jbrahams Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 well Gustafsson is ready to replace him so I'm not too concerned, both good fights, I think style wise Gustafsson will put up a better fight than Hendo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
