With six of his past wins via TKO/KO and five by submission, The Barbarian is everything but a cake walk.

Where does Dan Henderson go next?

Most MMA fans would agree that the main event of UFC 139 showcased possibly the best fight in MMA History.

The fight surpassed the legendary fight between Stephen Bonnar and Forrest Griffin in that Hendo and Shogun were veterans practicing their deadly art form to perfection where as Griffin and Bonnar was just a down right slugfest. Since then however we have not heard much from Henderson and many are aware that time is not on the side of the soon to be 42 year old fighter.
