I would have to agree with that statement and probably most of you would. In fact, I think Marquardt is a just a tad bit more deserving of a title shot than Dan Henderson. However, we've gone back and forth on that as well. It'll be interesting to see how the UFC handles this rumored fight between Anderson Silva and Vitor Belfort with Lesnar/Carwin reportedly being moved to UFC 108. Personally, I'd like to see Belfort win at least one more fight before getting a title shot since the win over Franklin was relatively quick with little action prior to the KO.

The argument would be that while Henderson and Franklin had a gritty battle, Vitor put Rich to sleep with the quickness.
But yeah, Marquardt has the higher quality wins (with a highly debatable loss to a former contender) – someone involved in this mess will probably have to fight Sonnen lol.
Bloody hell.
I still would’ve wanted an eliminator between Hendo and Marquardt… and then it would’’ve been logical to give Belfort the spot.
Bloody hell.
Yea
I’m for Hendo/Marquardt as well….now Sonnen can supplant Hendo since they are from the same camp and have similar styles….if Hendo wanna trip about the contract.

According to Anderson no one deserves to fight him
…except, for some odd reason, Frank Mir lol
Bloody hell.
He probably just wants to hit Mir in the mouth like many others….

Nate Marquardt Deserves The Title Shot More Than Me
fight hendo again and put him in his place and fight silva after he has taken marquardt apart again, even though it may last longer this time.
