Dana White: "Now you're fighting Dan Henderson" to Lyoto Machida.

Dorian

Machida] should have taken the fight. We've seen it, history always repeats itself. Look how long it took Rashad (Evans) to fight for the title again. So you wanted to fight Jon Jones, you climbed up to the title fight and you don't take it. Now you're fighting (expletive) Dan Henderson. Now you might not even get to the (expletive) title again. You lose to Dan Henderson you're not anywhere near Jon Jones.

You jump on opportunities when they're available. You get a shot at the title, the biggest money fight you can be in, the highest profile fight you can be in. And if you win that (expletive) fight, the whole world changes overnight."

I'm so bored of the talk about the UFC's 205 division at this point.

Henderson shouldn't have to fight another top guy to get a shot.

Jones would've turned it down anyway, and it seems so pathetic to punish Machida to wanting a full camp for the hardest fight of his career.

Danny Gunz

I agree with White. Machida doesnt call the shots if he wants the title fight he has to take it as soon as its available, turning it down just doesnt make sense.

****! Machida ( not bashing) just saying Jones is the champ if there is going to be any asz kissing Jones earned it. Nobodies work matters but the champ because he brings it every time. Machida is an awesome fighter but c'mon get off his sack Jones did more than Machida could dream of and slept the guy...early !!!

Real Entertainment or whatver closed up shop. So expect the DREAM guys to make a new promotion that'll flop after a few years. The sad thing is that if they started their shows in Korakuen Hall from the start they wouldn't have lost so much money in the first place. Japan is all about TV ratings but DREAM drew enough for smaller venues to maintain a competitive foothold against everyone but the UFC.
