MMA Fighting Newswire - Vitor Belfort seems to finally have his next opponent.

The former UFC light heavyweight champion and Dan Henderson have both agreed to a showdown on Nov. 9 in Brazil, according to UFC Tonight's Ariel Helwani on Tuesday.

It would be the second meeting between the two fighters. Henderson defeated Belfort via unanimous decision at Pride 32 in Las Vegas on Oct. 21, 2006.

The weight class has yet to be determined.

Henderson has lost his last two fights, including a split decision against Rashad Evans at UFC 161 on June 15.

Belfort has won his past two fights in devastating fashion, knocking out Michael Bisping at UFC on FX 7 and Luke Rockhold at UFC on FX 8.

I would like to see this match at a 195 catchweight, I believe Henderson isn't able to hang with the top at 205 anymore and Vitor fighting Henderson wouldn't get him any closer to Jon Jones as it is. That being said, Vitor said he was not interested in taking a fight at 185 because he wouldn't want to risk his ranking and would rather fight at a heavier weight.

I could see it being a Light Heavyweight bout as well though, but I would prefer it not to be.
