Benson Henderson vs. Michael Chandler

36-year old Benson Henderson is 7-5 over his last 12 fights. This is a rematch, as one of those losses was to Michael Chandler in 2016. Henderson prefers attacking with low kicks and is very patient, unlike his opponent. Chandler, a former lightweight champ, is on an 8-2 fight run, off a first-round KO win over Sidney Outlaw. Chandler has a wrestling base but is an excellent puncher, and his compact frame allows him to defend well. He also has an aggressive, attacking style right from the first round and can deliver vicious knockout power. Three of his last four fights have ended in the first round, all wins. Henderson is decent at grappling, but Chandler is better, a former NCAA All-American wrestler with quickness and power in takedowns. Chandler is two years younger, has the frame to prevent a submission, and he is a free agent after this fight, so this is a major bout for him. And in the first meeting, Chandler won three of the five rounds. Play Michael Chandler to win the bout.
