Like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz when she says, "There's no place like home", that is what Dan Henderson is doing on November 19th.
MMAWeekly.com reported that Strikeforce Light Heavyweight Champion Dan Henderson (28-8 MMA, 4-2 UFC) has re-signed with the UFC and will be returning to face former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Mauricio "Shogun" Rua (20-5 MMA, 4-3 UFC) at UFC 139.

If you can't wait for UFC 134: Silva vs Okami you are in luck. The UFC has released a 10minute extended preview trailer. The trailer will go over all things to do with the Main Card.
