At the UFC Fight Night 94 event from Hidalgo, Texas on Saturday night, UFC premiered a new vignette for their upcoming pay-per-view headlined by the long-awaited rematch between UFC veterans and MMA legends Michael Bisping and Dan Henderson.
Featured above is the “Legends Collide” preview for Bisping-Henderson 2, which headlines the next UFC PPV show, UFC 204, from Bisping’s hometown of London, England next month.
In their first fight, Dan Henderson scored a memorable knockout over Michael Bisping at the landmark UFC 100 event, which proceeded their runs as opposing coaches on The Ultimate Fighter.
UFC 204: Bisping vs. Henderson 2 takes place from the O2 Arena in London, England and airs live on pay-per-view on Saturday, October 8, 2016.
Former The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) runner up and No. 9-ranked middleweight Uriah Hall will look to bounce back from a disappointing November 2015 loss to Robert Whittaker when he meets No. 10-ranked Derek Brunson in the co-main event of this weekend’s (September 17, 2016) UFC Fight Night 94 from Hidalgo, Texas. While a win won’t
Former The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) runner up and No. 9-ranked middleweight Uriah Hall will look to bounce back from a disappointing November 2015 loss to Robert Whittaker when he meets No. 10-ranked Derek Brunson in the co-main event of this weekend’s (September 17, 2016) UFC Fight Night 94 from Hidalgo, Texas.
While a win won’t put him in immediate title contention, a win would certainly propel Hall further up the 185-pound rankings, and it appears as if he’s got some bad blood with the division’s current titleholder Michael Bisping.
Bisping is slated to defend his title for the very first time in a rematch with legendary veteran Dan Henderson at next month’s UFC 204 from Manchester, England. Not only does Hall hope Henderson knocks Bisping out, but “Primetime” also claimed that he ‘kicked Bisping’s a** in training before’:
“I’m a big fan of Dan (Henderson), I hope he knocks that dude out. He needs to shut the f–k up,” Hall said. “I’ve kicked Bisping’s ass in training before, I can say that. You can quote me on that sh-t, too. If I ever get the opportunity, I’m definitely gonna kick his ass. I don’t like him.” Hall said on a recent edition of UFC Unfiltered.
As far as how he would fair in a bout against “The Count”, it’s safe to say that Hall would be quite confident:
“Hell yeah, I can take that dude,” Hall said, referring to Bisping. “Get the f–k outta here.”
Do you see “Primetime” continuing his trek towards a title shot this weekend?

Next month, Michael Bisping makes his first title defense at UFC 204 against Dan Henderson.
Bisping became the first-ever British UFC champion when he knocked out Luke Rockhold. Now, on October 8 from England, he gets the chance to avenge his UFC 100 loss to Henderson.
Tickets for the event are now on-sale.
The card also features Vitor Belfort vs. Gegard Mousasi in a key middleweight contest.
Vitor Belfort and Gegard Mousasi are two fighters on very different paths in their respective careers. In terms of time, Belfort has been around the sport much longer. The Brazilian knockout artist has competed as a professional since 1996, posting his first fight for the promotion at UFC 12 in 1997. Mousasi is a little
Vitor Belfort and Gegard Mousasi are two fighters on very different paths in their respective careers. In terms of time, Belfort has been around the sport much longer. The Brazilian knockout artist has competed as a professional since 1996, posting his first fight for the promotion at UFC 12 in 1997. Mousasi is a little shorter in the tooth, having started in 2002, but has crammed in 47 fights in comparison to ‘The Phenom’s’ 37. Arguably at the very tail end of his fighting life, Belfort is now 39 years of age.
The Brazilian will take on ‘The Dreamcatcher,’ who is eight years Belfort’s junior, at UFC 204 in Manchester. Following his brutal knockout of Thiago Santos at UFC 200, Mousasi is on a two-fight streak. Belfort’s form has started to slide considerably, and his last fight was a rather miserable TKO defeat against Ronaldo Souza. The former UFC light-heavyweight champion and heavyweight tournament winner needs a big win against Mousasi.
Easier Said
Taking on the younger, fresher and in better form Gegard Mousasi is a tall task for Vitor Belfort. Also, as Mousasi himself recently pointed out in an interview with MMAJunkie.com, ‘The Phenom’ is a different fighter since the end of TRT and the beginning of the USADA era.
“Some say he’s not the same Vitor Belfort since…” asked a reporter during a scrum prior to UFC Fight Night 93 in Hamburg, German (snippet via MMAMania) before Gegard interrupted with, “steroids.” “Now we’re on a (even) playing field. He doesn’t have a doctor’s advantage and I will beat him.”
“He’s explosive and dangerous in the first two minutes, but I’ve seen him in the last two fights, especially with ‘Jacare’ and Weidman. He fades out very fast. So, either one or two minutes, (and) if he does his thing and it doesn’t work, he’s mine.”
Danger
When Gegard Mousasi is on form, he truly is one of the most dangerous fighters on the planet. Long regarded as the best light-heavyweight outside the promotion, ‘The Dreamcatcher’ holds wins over Dan Henderson, Ronaldo Souza, Mark Hunt, Mark Munoz, Ovince St-Preux and many others. Some feel Mousasi is only just starting to find his form in the UFC, and he has big plans:
“I think if I beat Vitor, you have (Ronaldo Souza) now and then I think Yoel Romero; those guys are ahead. If I beat Vitor, then I’m right up there. But, of course, Chris Weidman and Luke Rockhold, they are ex-champions, so with one win they probably will get ahead of me. But we’ll see. I don’t know. First, Vitor Belfort.”
