Vitor Belfort vs Dan Henderson
 
I would rather see Vitor fight Hendo than Rich. Makes more sense to have Dan avenge Matt's loss.

How do you think the fight would go? I'd say Hendo unanimous decision.

I gotta say, I completely agree.

There is very little interest for me in the Franklin/Vitor bout and IMO, the idea of the rematch of a reborn Vitor against a ferocious Hendo, added in with the Team Quest Revenge factor, I'm quite in favour of it.

I'll give it to Hendo via whatever way he pleases because of the two, I think Vitor makes the first mistakes.

Vitor will punish Dan whenever he shoots for the takedown and he is slightly better standing. Also the fact that I hate Dan Henderson may factor into my opinion as well.

No need to dream, this match already happened 3 years ago.

Ummm guys this fight already happened. And Hendo dominated the fight, pretty much taking down Vitor whenever he pleased. It was not the most exicting fight, but I remember Hendo won by scores of 30-27 on all cards.

A rematch at 185 could be interesting. But I think Hendo would just do it again. It seems Vitor's main weakness has been wrestlers, Couture, Hendo, Oritz to name a few off the top of my head. The only good wrestler he has beat has been Lindland.

Well to be fair, you're talking about fights that all happened during the first year after his sister was kidnapped/murdered, when nobody knew anything and his head was full of snakes.

Very true. But how knows how those fights would have fair anyway. He may have beaten Tito. But I doubt he would have beaten Couture (who already beat him once before) or Hendo who is a better verison of Couture.

The proof is there though that since he had some closure Vitor has been a beast.

Stop with the excuses man, it's really annoying and takes away from the fight and everything they put into it.

Vitor didn't make an excuse, so don't make one for him. He could have very well used her as a motivating tool.

But yeh, this fight already happend and would play out the same way.
