Henderson on the new DREAM promotion in Japan which was put together by Fight Entertainment Group and former
PRIDE staffers:
"I think there are two promotions starting. There's DREAM and World Victory Road. I think it's great for the sport. I think a lot of fans miss having PRIDE and that production, not necessarily the fighters and they fights they put on. There are top fighters in most of the organizations now, but the production is what I miss most. It will be good to watch that just as a fan now. I'm in the UFC for a while."
Henderson on the PRIDE vs. UFC argument:
"The consensus now is that the PRIDE guys aren't doing so well in the UFC, but in my opinion my last fight with Quinton Jackson was two PRIDE guys fighting for the title. Anderson came from PRIDE. Obvioulsy, he's improved a little bit since then. (Antonio Rodrigo) Nogueira has the interim title now. I think there is a little pride with that, but for me it's about myself and my team. That's it. I'm not going to win for a company that went belly up. I'm just going to do the best that I can out there for me and my team and my fans."
On the fight he would put together as a fan if he could pick any two fighters in the world:
"This one right here. I don't know. I mean, right now, this is the only one on the horizon that has that. I would like to see ... I would have liked to see Wanderlei (Silva) against Quinton Jackson in the UFC. Quinton lost in PRIDE, but it would be different here. But that probably won't happen now that he (Wanderlei) lost to Chuck."
