Dan Henderson Not Interested In Return To The UFC

Former Pride Champ, current Strikeforce Light Heavyweight Champ and long time fixture in the top ten rankings Dan Henderson will face one of the toughest tests of his career when he takes on Fedor Emelienanko in just a few short weeks in Chicago.

While that bout will not be for the title, the champ talked about the possibility of returning to his former stomping grounds in the UFC in the future, possibility to unify titles, during an interview this week and while it is something that may happen down the line, it isn't on Hendo's agenda right now:

“It hasn’t crossed my mind, really,” Henderson told 5thRound of rejoining the world’s premier mixed martial arts promotion. “I’m pretty happy where I am at. I think there’s plenty of guys that fight in Strikeforce right now [that I could face].

“I think it would be pretty neat to be involved with, possibly down the road, unifying the title or something like that, but I’m pretty satisfied where I’m at.”
