For the first time since 2007, MMA superstar Dan Henderson will fight for someone other than the UFC.
Henderson makes his heavily anticipated Strikeforce debut in a
middleweight title match with current champ Jake Shields at Saturday’s CBS-broadcast “Strikeforce: Nashville” event, and
while many believe “Hendo” arrives as the instant class of the
Strikeforce organization, the 39-year-old brawler believes plenty of
challenges await.
“You know, it didn’t bring me over here to just be on CBS but to be able
to still have some big challenges as far as fights go in Strikeforce,”
Henderson said. “They’ve got a
pretty good, big roster of fighters now, some big challenges.
