Coming off of a sweet victory over Terry Martin at Ultimate Fight Night 11, Chris Leben is getting ready to face off with Alessio Sakara at UFC 82. The event will take place on March 1, 2008 at the Nationwide Arena in Columbus Ohio, the same night that Anderson Silva will take on Dan Henderson for the UFC Middleweight championship. Henderson’s coming off of a loss in which he had a light heavyweight title shot against Quinton Rampage Jackson. Henderson didn’t get the Light Heavyweight Belt, now he’s getting a shot at the light heavyweight belt? How does that work? Shouldn’t there be some fights in between? I guess that Henderson’s performance against Rampage, which was a very close fight all the way, is enough to give him that shot for the middleweight belt. Although in my opinion, Anderson Silva is going to be a tougher battle for Henderson.
