There’s no rest for the wicked, and as far as Melvin Manhoef is concerned there will be “No Mercy” if he has his way and cuts a deal with the greatest MMA organization in the world. Manhoef has recently expressed his desire to fight for the UFC, and he already has an opponent in mind. Wanderlei Silva, one of the most exciting strikers the sport has to offer, and a former Pride Middleweight Champion holding the most knockouts in Pride history. Some may say Silva has seen his best days, but he was one to disagree when he went out and knocked out Cung Le at UFC 139 and had an exciting, hard fought bout against Rich Franklin at UFC 147 back in June of 2012. If you were to say this fight has fireworks all over it, you’d be making an understatement.

Lets be honest, Tito Ortiz didn’t really do that great of a job managing his own career as a fighter. That’s probably why he doesn’t have a flock of guys lining up to sign with his management services. The highest profile athlete on his roster is currently female slugger, Cris Cyborg.

Oddsmakers aren’t sold on the fact that Dan Henderson can take out Lyoto Machida when the two light-heavyweight fighters square off at UFC 157 in Anaheim. For his part Dan Henderson has cemented his place in the sport as one of the all-time greats.

He said, ‘I’m fighting the true number one contender Carlos Condit,’ and now, he’s going backtracking and saying, ‘Well, I think [Hendricks] lost.’ Who cares? You don’t get to decide. He’s not a judge. He’s not a judge. He’s a fighter. He’s paid to fight and he’s paid to fight me. The fact that he was able to ask and get this request [to fight Diaz], the only thing this is, is it gives me more drive. It’s not like I didn’t have enough but what’s gonna happen is, whenever I look across the cage, he’s not going to see fear. He’s not gonna see anything. All I want to do is I want to fight him. I want to look across and see GSP and that might be something he’s not used to. I don’t know. I don’t know why he didn’t take the fight but I guess I wouldn’t want to fight me as well.” – UFC welterweight contender, Johny Hendricks via MMA Mania.
