Dan Henderson Looking At January Return, “Probably” Heading Back To Middleweight Division

It looks like former PRIDE multiple-division champion Dan Henderson is thinking about making a comeback in the UFC Middleweight division upon his return to the Octagon.

Henderson reportedly told Ariel Helwani via “UFC Tonight” on FOX Sports 1 that he is “for sure” looking to fight in January, and will “probably” be doing so in the 185-pound weight class.

Dan Henderson hasn’t competed in the 185-pound division since dropping a decision to former Strikeforce Champion Jake Shields back in 2010.

The MMA legend had talked about possibly making his return to the Octagon at UFC 182 on January 3rd, however that is purely rumor at this point.
