[edit] Dan Henderson's fighting record

[edit] Not "Hollywood"

"Dangerous" Dan Henderson, is not Hollywood, at all. He is one of the kindest, silliest, guys you could meet; with such tremendous class that it would surprise most. The Team Quest organization has become highly recognized over the past year, or so, due to the success of Henderson, as well as some of his team mates, such as Matt Lindland and over-night power house sensation, Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou. Henderson's most recent gym with Team Quest, located in Murietta, California has become one of the most sought after training facilities in Mixed Martial Arts, and continues to turn out top notch fighters as it grows in popularity. Managed by Co-Owner, friend, and former USA Olympic Wrestler, Heath Sims, the facility caters to people of all ages and levels of expertise. In addition, Clinch Gear, an athletic clothing line now co-owned by Henderson, is proving to be yet another success for him. Highly personable and intelligent, Henderson demonstrates himself to be, not only a great fighter, but an excellent coach and businessman, as well.

[edit] Not Welterweight Champ of PRIDE

He is not the current champ. I think he is the light heavy and middleweight champ of PRIDE Renny11

He is the middleweight and welterweight champ of PRIDE, PRIDE had no light heavyweight division. They called it the middleweight division, like the UFC used to. SuzukS 07:40, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Dan Henderson did not lose the PRIDE welterweight/middleweight titles

While his matches were to unify the UFC & PRIDE titles, he is still in possession of both belts. Therefore he didn't lose them. SuzukS 07:38, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

That doesn't make any sense at all. If the matches were unification bouts (which they both were), then whoever lost would lose their title. Henderson may still have physical possession of the actual belt itself, but that's completely irrelevant to whether he lost the title. The matches were announced as unifying the titles, and I remember at least Silva being announced as the undisputed champion after he beat Hendo. Unless you can find a source that identifies him as still the PRIDE champion in each weight class despite losing title unification matches, please stop removing that note from his record table.
