Come this February, Benson Henderson will have reached the pinnacle of his career when he challenges lightweight kingpin Frankie Edgar for the title as the headliner for UFC 144.
The event marks the promotion’s first foray to Japan in over ten years where the famed Saitama Super Arena will play host to the historic event.
Despite Edgar’s more than noteworthy performances as of late, Henderson has been equally impressive inside the Octagon and holds skills that could decidedly sway the 155-pound affair in his favor.
