| Dan Henderson vs. Matt Lindland
Who would win this fight between two of the best MWs in the world?Both fighters are very well rounded and both fighters have amazing greco roman wrestling credentials.I think this would be an amazing matchup.

Good matchup between two great wrestlers, but if this fight happens now I'd take Lindland by a close decision. I think their wrestling would kind of cancel each other out and I find Lindland slightly better in the standup and cardio.

id say hendo by UD
His striking IMO better than lindlands and his wrestling is good enough to dictate where the fight goes. If lindland can take Hendo down (only mw who IMO can) then he could win the fight

Hendo is the 2nd best wrestler in MMA.. behind Matt Lindland, and he has better striking then Lindland, and enough power to rock Lindland striking.. so I would go Hendo by UD

Hendo and the Law are about even on the ground But Hendo has good standup as well. So I take Hendo.

I think this would be an amazing fight ,too bad it'll probably never happen ,although they're both always wanting to fight the best ,so maybe ,just maybe this fight could happen.
