| | McGirt regroups after 1st loss moving back to middleweight | | 2008-04-25 19:27:00 | | VERO BEACH, Florida (April 25, 2008) – There’s nothing more devastating in boxing that than a hot prospect’s first pro loss, especially for someone such as James McGirt, Jr. (18-1, 9 KOs), whose last name alone makes opponents perform better. McGirt suffered his first set-back April 11 when another son of a former world champion, [...] | | By: Fight News Unlimited | | |
| | Dan Henderson To Stay At Middleweight | | 2008-01-02 01:14:52 | | In a short phone conversation last night, PRIDE FC Welterweight Champion Dan Henderson told IWF's Ben Zeidler that no matter whether he wins or loses in his UFC 82 bout with Anderson Silva, he will remain at Middleweight for "quite some time."Many felt that if Henderson lost, he would surely leave the UFC's Middleweight ranks, for which he previously expressed displeasure. But after talking with Dana White and considering the division on his own, he decided to make the jump.If he wins, the belt, Henderson would obviously stay in the lower weight division in order to defend his new crown. The new news is that even if he loses, he will stay around 185 in order to challenge the best that the division has to offer -- and hopefully get a second crack at Silva. | | By: The Irish Whip | | |

These contrasting truths make this an interesting decision on Bisping's part. On one hand, he will most likely be considered a Top 5 fighter in the division whereas among the 205 pounders, he wasn't among the Top 10. On the other hand, once he climbs the short ladder to a title shot, he'll have his ass handed to him by the most dominant UFC champion since Chuck Liddell.Bisping elaborated on the move: “Even though I’ve never fought at middleweight, I’ve gone back and forth with the decision to go down pretty much my whole career. Even from my very first pro fight (April 2004), people were telling me that I was a little too | | By: The Irish Whip | | |
