If all he's thinking about is coming in, taking the 185 pound belt, then moving back up to 205, he could be in really big trouble. Anderson Silva is on a mission and alot of fighters have been making the mistake of underestimating him. Henderson's conditioning has to be much better than it was in the Jackson fight. Aderson Silva's never faced someone like Dan Henderson and in fights in Pride that went into the later rounds he didn't look as sharp. See the Chonan fight for example. Henderson should put him on his back, side mount him, ground and pound him with some knees. Basically take some of his energy away from him. His punches and kicks are then going to be much less crisp and less effective. Henderson can own Silva if he wants. The big question though is does he really want this. Is he going to be as hungry as he was in the Wanderlei fight. We'll see in March. Henderson has to come into this fight hungry and determined to win.

Is Henderson the guy who can neutralize Silva's Muy Thai? Can he get close enough to land his overhand right? Who has the advantage on the ground? This one will be a "can't miss."

Despite the fact that this is what Dana wanted, it just makes sense. He's got to represent the ol'Pride middleweight belt if he wants to think of himself as a champion (and if he wins, then he really will be champ). After Silva gets the decision for pounding on Dan's face for 25 minutes (to no avail), Hendo can go on and fight at whatever weight he wants. Seriously though, it just makes sense to have these two slugging it out and putting the mystery to rest. Of course, the UFC is Dan's boss now and the middleweight division is where he's needed. Light-heavy is just a zoo of potential champs. Good move by Hendo. Despite the fact that this is what Dana wanted, it just makes sense.

However, if the hard headed' Henderson decides to stand and brawl rather than go to the ground for most of the fight... I see Silva with a Win.

This will be Silva hardest fight yet, but i still think Silva can beat anybody at 185, i think he could beat Rampage at 205! Silva is just to good! Sorry guys Silva is staying Champ for a long time! I bet he'll beat Matt Hughes record(tiltle defends)! Hell yeah, I cant wait to see this fight!

Maybe they can have a spiketv show just on Hendo and team quest. it would help get the non hardcore fans behind him and give him some clout. i wonder if its gonna be pushed as another title unification bout?
