Hendo possibly on the June Card???

Quote :

“[The belt] definitely looks good around [my waist], so hopefully I’ll keep it there for a few fights. I definitely want to fight. I will be fighting before June or July, then probably take the summer off and fight near the end of the year. And I will definitely be hanging on to this belt.”

So could it be someone beside Mo, Mousasi, & Kyle since they're all fighting on the June card already. I know Mo doesn't have an opponent, but he's yet to fight since losing the belt so i can't see him getting a title shot. Hendo just beat Babalu. That only leaves Roger Gracie who's 4-0. Or maybe Strikeforce is hoping one fo the 2 winners in June si healthy enough to fight again in July?

It won't matter. All crumble to the HendoSmash!

Mousasi-Kyle is in April.

Fedor?

Possible. But I don't think it is likely.

Ah my mistake. I was thinking it was June. Well hopefully the winner will be healthy enough to go in June. That'd make the June card possible the best SF card ever.

Alistair Overeem(HW Champ) vs. Fabricio Werdum(The guy who ended Fedor)
Josh Barnett(top 15) vs. Brett Rogers(top 20)
Gina (hot!) vs TBA
King Mo (former champ & top 10) vs TBA (hopefully it'll be Gracie)
the you add the 205 title with Hendo (champ & top 10) vs Mousasi hopefully (top 10)

That'd be great. He needs to drop to 205.

But he won't.

Im thinking Hendo would take that fight as a heavy.

Another loss to a massive HW might change his mind if he doesn't retire.

Nope, he would just retire.

Yeah and he would probably be within 15lbs of Fedor anyways.

I could see it too. Kind of like Anderson moving up to 205 for fun. I could see Hendo setting the title aside to make a legendary fight.

Yeah he said a few times that he would take a fight at HW if it was an interesting fight. He calls the title "icing on the cake" so I'm sure he would be down for a Hendo vs Fedor matchup.

I hope he gets on the June 18th card with the HW GP. That would be epic!!!!

Fedor fight would be cool although possibly unlikely. Mousasi-Kyle winner in July works just fine though

Hopefully Hendo fights on the Main card and they bump Gina off this card.

It would be such a boost to SF's LHW division if Fedor and somebody like Daniel Cormier cut to 205.

Cormier would be a beast at 205, he's doing really well at HW but he's eventually going to fight somebody that's just too big for him.

I just don't see Fedor making the cut. I think he's never cut weight in his career, he walks around at 230, fights at 230..i bet it's never even crossed his mind.

I'm thinking/hoping SF will actually bring in Jardine to fight Mo...it will probably be somebody Mo will be heavily favored against coming off a layoff. Hell, Mo might want Feijao. I don't see it being Roger.

He wouldn't even have to cut much if he put better things in his body. Get a flippin dietitian for 4 weeks and he's down to 215. Then cut the lost 10 of water weight not big deal.

And BBC, there is no way in the world Hendo isn't on the main card. He's probably their top 3 when it comes to big names (Diaz, Fedor, & Hendo).

I'm pretty sure Hendo will headline a seperate card in July, especially if Mousasi turns out being his opponent. With the HW GP and Gina, SF has enough drawing power to anchor this event without running up the fighter purse by a significant amount having Hendo and potentially Mousasi on the card as well.

rumor out there is Gina vs Nunes, which is a fight that I would def like to see.

Gina is both good looking and an exciting fighter. Nunes brings it as well.

not to mention that the GP fights are headliner fights, as is a Hendo title fight. Too many top of the billboard fights for one card. Doubt it happens.

Yeah that would be pretty dumb. Plus with the Mousasi-Kyle fight in April, July just works better anyway

Plenty of other people like the Fedor idea as well.

You think I meant that? I would have to be the biggest retard on the planet if I thought Dan would open a show for Gina. I just figured there would be 4 main card fights and saw four already with Gina being rumored on the card. I meant have a Hendo fight, two HW GP fights, and King Mo vs tba. That would be the shit!
