Bisping should take this pretty easily on paper but obviously you can never count out a "h-bomb" landing.

yup the fighter with the most famous and powerful overhand right in history is challenging for the belt at the age of 46...that's pretty incredible, I think regardless of the outcome we will be looking at henderson as one of the best fighters of all time, sure he's never won the ufc belt but his resume is better than almost any other champion I can think of. his accolades include:

UFC 17 Middleweight tournament(in 1998 lol)
Rings openweight tournament
Pride welterweight grand prix and belt
Pride middleweight belt
Knockout of the year (2009) vs bisping at UFC 100
Strikeforce Lightheavyweight champion
fight of the year vs shogun in 2011 at UFC 139

he has beaten:

carlos newton
babalu x2
gilbert yvel
ninja
murillo bustamante x2(maybe one of the most underated mma fighters in history)
Big Nog
misaki
belfort
wanderlai
palhares
rich franklin
michael bisping
feijiao
shogun
fedor
lombard

to name but a few

what a legend, I think he should of retired after that epic win vs lombard where the crowd were cheering him back to life after he was hurt to deliver one of the most vicious knockouts I've ever seen.

I'm cheering for hendo for sure but betting bisping pretty large, easy to hedge with hendo KO, very hard to see this going to a decision. I'd be really surprised tbh.

One thing that almost about bisping is his eye, his pupil is literally black, google it if you haven't seen it, it's gnarly, and we may not know how bad his vision in it is until he retires.
you gotta think bisping is going to have a big cardio advantage, and also his output will likely be a lot higher than dan's. at this point hendo get's wobbled by a stiff breeze, bisping's power is slightly underrated and he's only going to need a few clean shots to put dan in serious trouble. I could see bisping taking his time in the first few minutes but I think he'll be prepared for the big right hand. Im interested to see how hendo mixes it up and maybe try something out of the normal hendo gameplan.

looking forward to seeing moose and vitor, moose could be a win or 2 away from a title shot if he wins here, he's a big fan favorite too which helps.

I'm liking OSP's odds tbh, manuwa not quite on the same level as the divisions best, but he's dangerous nonetheless, weak ground game though, OSP's going to have a big grappling advantage, and is coming of a very respectful performance on short notice against bones, he's impressed me since coming into the ufc from strikeforce, one of the most improved fighters technically at the top of the game imo.

quite like alcantara and tumenov too, Looking forward to seeing tumenov's stand up again, some of the best in the division for sure, he looked great vs larkin (both did tbh) before his ground game was demolished by gunnar, which is unusual for a  russian fighter, most of them come from a strong sambo background, but einstein does not. if he can get that aspect of his game up to par with his striking he's a definite future title challenger.

mike perry vs danny roberts on the prelims will be interesting too

UK fighters getting smashed tonight hah, perry's KO was nasty, ref was late stopping it too, close fight up until then.

tumenov completely **** the bed, his ground game is ****, he doesn't seem to of improved it since he lost to gunnar, he was well on his way to winning too. can't trust his ML odds anymore, too flaky.

davy grant threw away a win there too, terrible fight IQ like albert. alcantara put me in the positive for the night

JIMI MANUWA! take a bow

great performance from manuwa, didn't think he was capable of doing that to osp who looked ****

mousasi what a ebast think vitor may retire tbh cmon bisping dont let us down next LOL

beast*

I hope moose get's those big fights with the top of the division now, great strategy, very cerebral, and great timing

Am I ****g dreaming right now??!?!

dan ****g henderson who's 47, you know the guy from UFC 17...is fighting for the MW belt against michael bisping... what a crazy sport haha

madness hes won belts everywere hes been apart from ufc would be 1 hell of a way to go out lol but gotta root for my fellow brit

bisping looks a totally different fighter from the first fight hendos nearly 50 and they say the last thing to go is power so he still has that as his only hope, still baffles me that it ws 7 years ago they fought man time flys bye :(

omfg this is nuts lol

what a fckking fight

;ppled like hendo got hit in the balls tho then nearly ko;ed him hahha

defo got hit in the balls poor from ref there

THE H BOMB IS BRUTAL

ref was helping Bisping by missing the groin shot Edd

one more H Bomb and Bisping is done..

ffs bisping enough of the kicking in the balls

hmm a bit unimpressed with bisping tbh

Im amazed bisping ate the ones he did!

hendo looks **** but that h bomb can land at any time

the only impresssive thing has been his ability to survive the punishment he's taken

pretty much, he should of clinched and worked takedowns more, hendo's cardio isnt capable of working that pace

hendo has to go all out with the h bomb its all or nothing otherwise decison for bisping

the only fight on the whole card, including pre-lims to go the distance

it's going to be very interesting to see how they scored this

wow, hendo might actually of taken that decision, bisping didnt do much damage at all

dec win for bisping but man mch respect for the legend that is hendo what a ebast at nearly 50 goes the distance with the current champ

I'm not sure, lets see

beast*

im not sure either, starting to fall asleep a lil

and still

he doesn't look like a winner, but they gave him the hometown judging

look at the state of bispings face

awww unlucky hendo, what a legend, huge respect to him. that 49-46 card for bisping was a little rich though hah

hendo going crazy at dana

I thought they'd do a draw tbh

I had £2 on a draw at 520/1 .....

he's retiring. that's why they didn't give him the decision

crowd probably helped bisping with the judges.

hahah I was eyeing that 50/1 too near the end

well be stuck to his word, win lose or draw he would retire been awesome watching this man fight for many years legend, ok im done falling asleep here lads cya all next time

where'd you get 520/1?

ahh it was 240/1 actually...still worth taking in hindsight
