Lyoto Machida vs Dan Henderson 2 targeted for UFC on Fox 19 card on April 16th in Tampa, Florida. Machida won the first fight by split decision in February 2013. In the UFC, Machida has won a split decision against Hendo and lost a split decision to Rampage. Hendo has had 9 fights end in split decisions. He has won 6 of those 9 fights. Before being called "Hendo", Dan was nicknamed "Hollywood". A name he did not like. Before becoming a well-known KO artist, Hendo was condescendingly labelled by fans online as "Decision Dan". Shogun vs Rashad targeted for that same card on April 16th. They were supposed to fight in March 2011 but Evans got injured. Jon Jones replaced him and won the UFC title from Shogun. Shogun won his last bout against Nogueira in August. He has 4 wins and 6 losses in his last 10 fights. Rashad lost his last fight to Ryan Bader in October. He is 2 and 3 in his last 5 fights. Khabib Nurmagomedov and Tony Ferguson will fight on that card in April for 5 rounds, the winner likely gets the next title shot. So we could see Ferguson vs Conor, Ferguson vs RDA, Khabib vs Conor, or a rematch between Khabib and RDA. Khabib beat RDA by decision in April 2014, that's the last time he fought. If Conor McGregor beats Rafael he'd defend the lightweight title likely in the fall after fighting first fighting at featherweight at UFC 200 on July 9th. Cub Swanson fights Hacran Dias on that same card. His last fight was a guillotine choke loss to Max Holloway in April 2015. He broke his jaw in that fight and considered retiring. Hacran Dias is ranked #10 at featherweight. He was in Aldo's corner when Conor was celebrating and told him he'd fight him for free. Michael Chiesa vs Beneil Dariush also on that card . Chiesa is coming off a win over Jim Miller in December. Dariush won a split decision over Michael Johnson in August and also holds a win over Jim Miller, who he beat by decision. Dariush's teammate Rafael Dos Anjos fights Conor McGregor a month earlier. So UFC on Fox 19 has: Khabib vs Ferguson, Rashad vs Shogun, Machida vs Hendo, Chiesa vs Dariush, Swanson vs Dias and Bethe vs Raquel Pennington. Patricky Pitbull knocks out Ryan Couture.
