Benson Henderson: 5 Defining Moments

Benson Henderson, now 34, has little left to accomplish in mixed martial arts.

The onetime World Extreme Cagefighting and Ultimate Fighting Championship lightweight titleholder will take his latest turn as a Bellator MMA headliner, as he does battle with Roger Huerta in the Bellator 196 main event this Friday at the Budapest Sports Arena in Budapest, Hungary. Henderson enters the match on a two-fight losing streak, having dropped consecutive split decisions to Michael Chandler and Patricky Freire; he has never suffered three straight defeats.
