After fight-camp isolation, UFC 139’s ‘Shogun’ gets long-awaited Henderson fight

SAN JOSE, Calif. – Mauricio “Shogun” Rua knew a meeting with Dan Henderson was inevitable.

It’s just taking place in a different organization, on a different continent, in a different fighting apparatus and with slightly different stakes.

Sure, Rua and Henderson aren’t fighting for a PRIDE title, but Saturday’s UFC 139 event will do just fine, he said.
