When will we see Sokoudjou in the UFC?

[RedHawk]

With his impressive wins in PRIDE, I'm surprised the UFC hasn't signed him yet. I'd rather see Sokoudjou fight in the 205 division and Hendo stay at 185.

[AKA]

yeah, I'll prefer to see Hendo (and Kang) be added at MW a,d Shogun+Wandy at 205.

Damn, its getting really really competitive!

[Grant Ellis]

Sukoudjou > Liddell, Jackson, Wandy!

Well for what it's worth, I saw Kang and Sokoudjou hanging around at UFC 71...

and Dana said Hendo himself was the one that demanded he was a LHW fighter.

[heckyl]

hey hendo weighs in around 195-199 usually. lhw is technically 186-205. people like kampmann fight at mw and weigh 180 lbs. it shouldnt be an issue for em.

[K-1 Extremist]

Hendo just can't hang with people his own size! He's like Kaoklai, who made his K-1 career of beating people bigger than him.

I think Hendo wants a shot at the title and PPV $$$... which is understandable.
Although I don't think he has a big chance of beating Rampage.

[heckyl]

i would give Henderson a 50/50 shot on this. his last win was an impressive one against a man that beat Rampage twice, and badly. Dan just seems a different fighter at 205. thats world class vs world class. gotta give them the same respect.

[AKA]

I'm pretty sure Rampage will win his stand up is far better, he is also more powerful in general. And Hendo is one of my favorite fighter ever!

[Shiruba]

I wanna see Sokoudjou vs. Houston Alexander now. After Alexander knocked out Jardine that was the first fight that came to my mind.

[Global Honored]

What for Sokoudjou to challenge for now? He wouldn't fight Team Quests alums Hendo in LHW division should he win, or Randy in HW division should he retain. It would be great to see him revenge Hendo is Rampage whoops his a$$ too. I think Shogun would get next shot though. Vera trains at Xtreme Couture as well I believe, so there goes another good matchup for him. I do want to see him in there though, maybe vs Tito or Forrest to get him some name recognition.

True, but the Wand Dan fought wasn't Wand anywhere near his peak.
His confidence was truly destroyed when he was ktfo by Mirko.

He wasn't aggressive against Dan, which is Wands trademark and his greatest strength.

[tarley01]

The wand that fought that Rampage the 2nd time was really a beast and no way in hell would Hendo be able to handle that Wand. I just hope Wand gets back in to that shape and mental state and he'll be back on track.

We all know how much Dana likes Tito, so why not Tito v Sokodjou after he fights Evans?

Even if Evans defeats Tito, he'll still be a big enough name to put Sokodjou on the map for killing him.
