Dan “Hendo” Henderson is a retired American mixed martial artist and Olympic-level greco-roman wrestler who competed across multiple weight classes in the UFC. Known for his imposing right hand, dubbed the “H-bomb,” and his competitive spirit, he stands as one of the sport’s most respected warriors.
MMA Career
Henderson began his professional MMA career in 1997 and made his UFC debut at UFC 17 in 1998, winning the middleweight tournament that night. He later fought in major organizations such as PRIDE and Strikeforce before returning to the UFC in the light heavyweight and middleweight divisions.
