In a shock to no one, Dan Henderson has signed with Strikeforce. In a shock to me, Jake Shields says he would fight Dan, if asked. I, for one, am looking forward to this fight. It's a chance for Shields to prove what I've always known; he isn't fit to scrub the jocks of the big leagues. Henderson will out wrestle Shields, and when Shields tries to stand and trade, he'll be "Miked".
On the flip side, Hendo vs. Mousasi WILL. BE. AWESOME! Plus, it's the only actual LHW title fight is SF that makes sense. Because there is no one else in the SF LHW division. Hey, it's the effort that counts!
Dana White is acting like it ain't no thang. This isn't like letting Tim Sylvia or Tito Ortiz go. This is like letting Andrei Arlovski go, at least in theory. AA should have been a major coup for EliteXC, but he lost. Henderson isn't an over-the-hill, non-relavant fighter. Yet. This could prove to be a turning point in the "Strikeforce is a far distant second place" game.
