Welcome to Leg Kick TKO, a MMA
blog that’s more rudimentary than Royce Gracie’s striking.
In old news, a fight is
not happening due to injury, a theoretical fight is not happening due to one fighter
not agreeing to it, and the MMA community lost its collective mind. It basically shakes out like this:Just the Facts, Ma'am
Dan Henderson suffered a
slight tear in his MCL about three weeks ago.
Dan, being a stubborn, tough, old man, wanted to try and push through
the injury and fight Jon Jones at UFC 151 on 9/1. After a final evaluation around 8/23, it was
determined that Henderson would be unable to fight due to stability issues. He could handle the pain, but his knee just couldn't properly support him, and Dan needs a stable base to unload a Big Right Hand and push off for a diving forearm, both seen below.
