    I was watching a fight channel they're promoting where I live and as I was watching a boxing match, the fighting new was also being displayed. One of the messages from SF was that Fedor - Henderson are in negotiations to fight at a catchweight.

    Anyone else read this, and if true, any thoughts on this fight? What would the catchweight be, 215?

    I found this after I posted my original message.

    If this fight does happen, I honestly think that Dan Henderson Is going to have a hell of a time trying to stand with Fedor. I really want to see this fight happen. The one thing I can't understand is the fact that Fedor doesn't want to cut to 205 and fight for the title. I personally thinks he can win and be the anderson silva of the Strikeforce's 205 division.

    Fedor fought his whole career as a heavyweight and I suspect he's simply not willing to cut weight, it's also possible that doing so could negatively impact on his strength.

    Fedor beats anybody in the world his weight, less than 20lbs heavier than him or lighter than him. Let us not forget who we are talking about here
