Dan Henderson talks to Sherdog.com about Vitor Belfort getting the next crack at UFC Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva, even though he holds a win over Belfort, via unanimous decision, at Pride 32:

“I like Vitor (Belfort). He’s a good guy and he’s been around for a long time, but I just don’t understand why he gets to jump to the front of the line, especially when I beat him. I think it’s something that might have slipped their minds, that [it] happened. I’m not exactly sure. You’ll have to ask them on that, but to me, that’s what it seemed like. I feel like I have stepped up for them a number of times and have done things for them. I never turned Marquardt down. I basically made a statement saying that Marquardt and Anderson Silva are my next two fights regardless and I’ve got to beat them both to either become or stay the champ. I’m O.K. with fighting (Marquardt); we just have to come up with a deal. Basically anywhere’s a possibility, but I’d like to make things work with the UFC. I don’t know what they’re thinking. They haven’t gotten back to me at all since I flew out last week. I’m not trying to pin them over a barrel or anything. I feel like I was just undervalued before, especially toward the end of my contract.â€￾

maybe the fact it took you 5 fights in the UFC to stop someone had something to do with it, only 2 decisive wins in 5 fights, along with 2 losses in those five fights, belfort is hot right now, he stopped franklin and hendo didnt, even if franklin was too lazy to gain or cut weight to make an actual weight class for the fight.

stoppage over former middleweight champ > stoppage of bisbing

Silvia doesn't want any rematches, so Vitor is the only logical choice for the moment being, plus Henderson has already lost.. i think we need to get some other names to try and De-Thrown Silvia before anyone else gets another shot.
