“Obviously I was hoping to not fight him, as well, I respect him. He’s a wrestler and he represents the sport really well and I’m a fan of his. It’s never somebody that you want to beat up in that way, but, we both have the same goals and sometimes we have to compete against each other.”

“I don’t know if I want to or not (take him down). I think I’ll be able to do a lot of things he isn’t used to, as far as wrestling goes. We come from two different wrestling styles. I don’t think I want to try and take him down, I kind of want to test his chin.”

In a recent interview with ‘The MMA Hour‘ top UFC light-heavyweight fighter, Dan Henderson discussed his upcoming co-main event against Daniel Cormier set for next month.
