Dan Henderson and Rashad Evans have had outstanding MMA careers. If they want to remain contenders in the light heavyweight division, though, they’ll have to get things turned around quickly after their recent decision losses.
At UFC 161, only one can return to the race for a shot at the 205-pound championship. The other may have to re-evaluate and consider retirement or a move to the middleweight division.
In addition to the light heavyweight main event, Roy Nelson will appear on the UFC 161 main card. “Big Country” is expected to stand toe-to-toe with Stipe Miocic, who will try to mount an upset and knock Nelson down from his lofty position in the heavyweight rankings.
