Went with Dentures Dan here. Rashad could easily turn this into a wrastlin match and grind Hendo out since Dan seems to be content head-hunting these days. Still, I feel the old man has it in him to get the ko. Watch Evans be the first guy to knock Henderson out now that I've said that though. So long as they don't circle each other for fifteen minutes it should be a good fight.
I'd like to see Hendo win, but I just don't see it. He might have more power than Machida, but does he have the speed to land on Rashad? I don't think he does. Rashad's going to out work him, out-wrestle him, and really test Henderson's cardio. I see no other result but an Evans UD, but would love to see an H-Bomb KO!
There's two ways I really see this fight going either Henderson knocks Evans out or Evans grinds out a decision with combination of his striking and wrestling. I'm hoping its the ladder.
I'm obviously wanting Hendo to win as he's one of my favs, but like others have mentioned if he can't KO Rashad I can't see him winning a decision with his questionable gastank.
Rashad needs to remember he has never been amazing at any aspect of mma, he is a good boxer with decent head movement, a good wrestler who sets up his shots well. Its always been about how he puts it all together for Rashad and in his last fight he never put anything together.
I love Dan Henderson, always have but that bucket he keeps his back foot in gets bigger and heavier every fight. If Rashad fights well he'll look like he's in the matrix compared to dan.
I will feel much more confident once I see Rashad shoot in and do it with some commitment.
If your Dan and you saw Rasahds last two fights why not put that left hand out and try playing hand slap then unload with the right, worked well for Lil Nog and Jones.
