What to do IF Reem can't fight JDS.

Well, it won't be Mir or Cain

Dana just tweeted that Mir vs. Cain will happen.

Dan Henderson

For sure... RT @Jitterbug2Djent: @danhendo Would you take the JDS fight if offered?

UFC President Dana White Says Frank Mir Vs. Cain Velasquez 'Will Happen"

I would love to see Hunt get the gig but I just can't see it.

Hendo is crazy enough to ask for this and his win over Fedor means Dana would probably consider it.

Would Werdum be willing to give up his Brazil spot for a rematch ?

Hendo, Hunt, or bust. Fuck Werdum

Good. That is what I would of done.

Hendo has a better chance of beating JDS than he does JJ or Anderson.

No he doesn't. JDS is easily the toughest fight of the three for Hendo. He stole a round off Anderson the first time and that was before he became super TRT Hendo. He poses problems for Jones with his ability to wade in and connect or even match his greco in theory. JDS' footwork and accuracy/power would likely see Hendo's first KO/TKO loss.

He fought Anderson a long time ago and couldn't handle the weight cut vs Shields. It would be much harder for him to cut now especially since he's in his 40's. JJ would destroy him and has too many tools in his bag. At least JDS would just stand there with him and give Hendo a chance to land the H-Bomb. He wont beat any of the 3 but I think JDS would be his best shot.

When have we ever seen JDS "just stand there"? Footwork is what makes him such a phenom compared to the other straight up strikers in the division(Kongo, Barry, Hunt, etc etc etc) who are for the most part career long middle tier fighters instead of champions in MMA. Dos Santos is without a doubt the most dangerous fight of the three for Hendo.

That makes no sense.

JJ and Silva are more likely to be caught by an H bomb, JDS's chin is pretty solid and has more than enough power to stop Hendo.

Well since Reem won't be able to dance his way past his failed test. Since Dana said Mir vs Cain is happening. I think the list of likely candidates goes in this order.
1. Werdum
2. Hendo
3. Barnett
4. Hunt
5. Fedor

Now way he'd not gas after a fight or 2.

He went 15 with Rothwell. It would take him less time then that to get to the main card.

"I have no idea. I think maybe, they want to see a feel good story of the year. I think people like to see an underdog. I mean, I wasn't even wanted in the UFC and here we are talking about getting a title shot. I think people like the feel good story. No one's told me nothing. I'm always last to find out. I'm still looking to fight Struve, but if I get a title shot then that is better for me and that will be thanks to the 'Army of Doom.' It's not up to me but the chances are good. I think the 'Army of Doom' has been bombing Dana Whites twitter. But whatever happens, it is what it is. But I won't be disappointed and Struve is a tough opponent and I will be moving on and when it is my time to get a title shot, I will. You can say whatever you want, but the UFC, at the end of the day they are going to do what they want, it's their call."

How does he think he matches up with the champ?

Hunt was pretty direct when the topic switched to The Reem and his failed test:

"Drugs in all sports is a big problem. It's a cutthroat business, people take this sh*t just to get by. I don't use that sh*t, but when Alistair takes that shit or whoever takes it they just screw themselves out. Like when Barnett screwed himself out of the fight with Fedor. But who am I to judge anybody. I don't take that shit and no one else should. If they do, that's on them, Alistair is now in court, and everything that Alistair has done is meaningless now. At the end of the day he just got caught cheating, so what's the deal? I lost to him, so did he use that sh*t when I was fighting him? That's on him, he has to live with that sh*t not me. It's not my position to judge him, he has to look himself in the mirror. At the end of the day, I don't give a crap who's taking what. The steroids are not going to help them when I hit them. Take as much as you like, I don't care."
