Dan Henderson and Rich Franklin will go at it again in a light heavyweight bout at UFC 103 on Sept. 19 at the American Airlines Center in Dallas.

The promotion announced the tilt –- a rematch of their first encounter at UFC 93 last January in Dublin, Ireland -- on UFC.com Monday. Henderson bested Franklin in their first 205-pound contest via split decision.

The bout will be the first on a new multi-fight contract Henderson agreed to with the promotion over the weekend, Sherdog.com has learned.

The 38-year-old Henderson (25-7), a two-division Pride champion, is riding high after his second-round knockout of rival “Ultimate Fighter” coach Michael Bisping at UFC 100 on July 11.

Former middleweight champion Franklin (25-2) earned a unanimous decision over Wanderlei Silva in a 195-pound bout at UFC 99 last June in Cologne, Germany. Franklin out-maneuvered the Brazilian brawler with a well-executed game plan.



This match-up is ****ing pointless, a bore and a waste of time. They better make this free if they even have hopes of competing with Mayweather/JMM. Because this is a ****ty Main Event

the only problem I have with this matchup is that I'd rather see Henderson at MW. there are already so many good fighters in the LHW division which is the deepest division right now IMO.

the MW division desperatley needs some talent and Henderson moving up is a big loss to that already weak division.

Henderson and this match sucks.

I don't know why they're doing this. Its such a stupid and pointless match up.

Its way too early for this rematch and the card is pritty poor. JMM / Floyd for me that night

This match-up sucks.

Also Franklin is 25-4 not 25-2.

the matchup itself doesn't suck, the fact that it will be a main event does

not interested in this fight headlining any ppv card

I agree, it could be an interesting fight. However, it doesn't have a lot of luster at this juncture.
