It's on. Michael Bisping will square off against Dan Henderson once again. This time for the middleweight championship of the world.
Dana White joined the Fox Sports booth following UFC 200 to make the announcement. The date and venue are yet to be announced, but White said they are eyeing Manchester, Bisping's hometown, as the city.
Their first meeting gave us one of the most memorable knockouts in UFC history. Bisping got caught by an "H-bomb" and went stiff. Henderson followed it up with an unnecessary, but memorable, flying forearm. It became legend as it happened on the big stage of UFC 100.
More than 100 pay-per-view events later, the middleweight landscape has changed. Bisping stands atop the division after a stunning knockout of Luke Rockhold at UFC 199, and on the same card Henderson put Hector Lombard to sleep.
It seems fate had a plan.
Now in his first title defense, Bisping gets a shot at redemption. What has changed and who holds the edge? This is your early look at the head-to-toe breakdown for this vital middleweight encounter.
