Dan Henderson and Vitor Belfort will square off for a third time when the Ultimate Fighting Championship travels to Sao Paulo on Nov. 7.
UFC President Dana White revealed the matchup at Saturday’s post-fight press conference. No other bouts were announced for the event.
Henderson and Belfort first fought in 2006 at Pride Fighting Championships 32, with “Hendo” emerging with a unanimous decision triumph. Belfort won in devastating fashion when they locked horns again at UFC Fight Night in November 2013, as he knocked Henderson out with a head kick 1:17 into the opening frame of their headlining encounter.
