10:34 AM ET 10.31 | It seems the price is not right for UFC middleweight Dan Henderson, who maintains that the UFC is not offering him enough to return and fight with the organization. "I just feel that I am worth a little more than what they are offering," Henderson recently told Sports.net.ca. "You gotta consider that I have been in this sport a long time and done a lot for this sport. Obviously I wouldn't be out there asking for what I am asking for if I was just out there losing all my fights."

Well Dan, Don't let the door hit ya were the good lord split ya! Obviously what you think you are worth is not what the UFC thinks you are worth. This is America, You are free to go see if you can make more $$ somewhere else, If you can't then take what the UFC is offering. Its a win-win situation for you.

Henderson willing to leave UFC? for God's sake they are telling him to leave. Can't Henderson understand that Dana is saying beat it you 40 year old beaten down pug your fan base is dwindling and you are a shot fighter with maybe a right hand punch or two left. Henderson could stay if he is willing to accept minimum wage and that is all he is worth. Who is going to pay PPV dollars to see a half brain dead senior citizen( in sports years) trying to hang on and limp through a fight. Leave and go to Strikeforce where you can get a check a fight and maybe a life!!!!

I not only agree with comment three but who in the UFC has beaten Dan since Silva. Oh yeah, no one! SO, the UFC won't pay him what he wants, no biggie but no reason to act like a child either. Sounds like you maybe have some rage that you need to get in a cage to get rid of. You love to come on these boards now and smash on people. It's ok little man.

Spoken like a typical overzealous UFC fan. Dana got you on his payrolls?

Hendo is one of the best fighters in the world, i hope he does move on if UFC doesn't give him what he deserves. There's plenty of money to made elsewhere, can always come back to Japan and combine that with fighting in Strikeforce.

there's a BIG difference between popping some jack**** like Bisping in the mouth and actually hanging with Anderson Silva....Henderson has nowhere to go in UFC until Silva retires....
