Dan Henderson’s loss ended up being Vitor Belfort’s gain.
In one of the oddest days in UFC history, a revolving door of potential
opponents saw Henderson withdraw from a UFC 151 matchup with Jon Jones, who then turned down a fight with Chael
Sonnen only to accept a fight with Lyoto Machida, who also declined the
offer, leading to Jones vs. Belfort at UFC 152. Got it?
Ed
Soares, Machida’s longtime manager, said his client is comfortable with
his decision.
