This is what I said about Hendo's chances a couple months back

Guys I'm not knocking Hendo I think he's a great fighter, I'm just saying that as he tried, and failed to conquer the UFC a few years ago and failed I don't see it that likely that he will go return and become the UFC champion.

Yes he has a punchers chance, and knowing Dana could well come back and virtually walk into a title shot off the back of the Fedor win so it's not impossible.

I just think the best guys are all ahead of him right now and I'd fancy Jones, Rampage, Rashaad and Machida over hij, maybe Rua too.

Saying he's on a level with Forrest Griffin isn't a bad thing. He's had some good wins. But I'm sure none of you realistically expect Griffin to be UFC champion again, and I'd say the same of Hendo.

Although following on from his win over Fedor if he does come back he will likely land a big fight.

I'm just going to stick my neck out and say against one of those top guys I mentioned he won't win it.

Fair enough, he did beat Shogun, barely, although he was on his way to getting stopped. Shigun imo is the weakest of the recent UFC champiosn, along with Griffin.

Hendo fought a great fight but showed his limits. Jones will beat him easily.
