If UFC 155 isn't full of fights, I think it's safe to say: 'spike the eggnog with a healthy amount of fresh human urine, it looks like we will have Machida Vs. Hendo on tap for sometime this holiday season.' Yes, I am acutely aware of December 21st, 2012 and the fact that UFC 155 goes down December 29th, but if we are still on this planet and UFC 155 really does go down, I can't think of a better way to enjoy it than in a cheesy holiday sweater adorned with reindeer and the clinking of glasses filled with warm pee. You may ask the question: 'Can you write an article without mentioning Lyoto Machida and urine?' The answer will always be no. Always. That is my cross to bear.

Dana White had some interesting things to say at a UFC luncheon about Machida Vs. Hendo being in the works, and Dave Meltzer and MMA Fighting got the scoop. Here's what was said, possibly behind a delicious plate of food:

"[Machida] should have taken the fight. We've seen it, history always repeats itself. Look how long it took Rashad (Evans) to fight for the title again. So you wanted to fight Jon Jones, you climbed up to the title fight and you don't take it. Now you're fighting (expletive) Dan Henderson. Now you might not even get to the (expletive) title again. You lose to Dan Henderson you're not anywhere near Jon Jones,"

"You jump on opportunities when they're available. You get a shot at the title, the biggest money fight you can be in, the highest profile fight you can be in. And if you win that (expletive) fight, the whole world changes overnight."

"For Dan Henderson, it's the last 30 seconds of the last round on the last day of sparring and (Rameau Thierry) Sokoudjou goes to (expletive) throw him like a Judo throw and pops his knee out. It was almost over. What are you getting out of the last 30 seconds and he goes to throwing him in some crazy judo throw and pops Dan's knee out. It just one of those things,"

"Me and Ed (Soares) thought Machida would take the fight then he turned the fight down," White said. "The press conference was going to start in minutes and I literally had just got done (expletive) fighting with Jones minutes before that. Now I'm (expletive) talking to Soares and I'm like 'Machida will take this fight, right?' Yeah I don't see why he wouldn't take it. This is what he's wanted, he's been waiting for this fight and has got four weeks to train for it. So I'm like (expletive) it, I'm just going to go with it."

Hendo loses this and he's never going to get another title shot. Hate to say it but the clock is ticking REALLY loud for him. Not enough time to get back up the ranks again. WARHENDO!!!

You've clearly forgotten that now days You need only one win in Light Heavyweight to get a title shot, or be awesome like Cheal, or just be available.

If Vitor wins I'll end up on the news for attempting to flip cars in a parking lot nearby my viewing location. I'm so excited by the prospect of Vitor winning. Especially, if he does it in that very Wanderlei murder=y way.

yeah I feel Henderson is going to cry to Dana to not make the fight happen, because he might loose. Thing is Dana is pissed at henderson for what he did.

Machida did the right thing... All his title shots he was the replacement guy... he need to take the right time and do this thing right this time. Better lose to Hendo and climb the ranks again ( dammit, Vera and Bader could have fought for the title if they won ) than lose to Jones again and and be like the Koscheck of the LHW

I like how Dana doesn't even say the winner of Jones vs. Vitor. He just says Jones.

I hope Vitor shatters Jones jaw.

I really hope Vitor Blitz's Jones from the bell and doesn't even give him a chance to stand up from his starting pose. Please Vitor....Turn it on, and anhilate. Jones will not be able to handle a hard blitz, gaurentee it. Machida is going to knockout Henderson btw, he's waaaaaaaay toooo similar to Couture.

similar, yes, but completely different when you think about the problems each pose. couture was supposed to avoid counters and clinch him up. i see machida winning a decision and getting choked out again by jones. jones whether we like it or not is unstoppable at 205

Shut up Dana. If Lyoto lost the (expletive) fight to Jones on short notice, you never would have given him another (expletive) shot at the title you (expletive)

Dana went off on some rant about how these guys aren't hungry anymore, but everybody is just trying to be overly cautious because they know they only get two shots at the champ MAX, and three or four losses and they're out of a job.

hopefully vitor throws a wild haymaker and barely graces jones' eyelid, rendering him unable to fight. then later jones gets injured, resulting in his eventual move to hw after not fighting for a year. then vitor vs dan is booked, but vitor gets injured and replaced by anthony johnson. then dan decides hes injured too and they change the main event to Anthony Johnson vs Lyoto Machida for the LHW title in 2013

I'm confused... Dana WAS saying Machida was perfectly fine is turning down the fight, because he was in the middle of travelling.

And now he's taking back his word and saying Machida is wrong...? Go figure. DW at his finest.
