Dan Henderson’s Camp Claims Their Price Is Reasonable

“Contracts are confidential, so that statement’s impossible to prove or disprove,” said Crecy. “However, we have done our due diligence. We certainly don’t believe that to be the case. Dan understands and we have a certain belief on where he stands in the hierarchy. Certainly there are champions and former UFC champions that deserve to be paid more than Dan. Right now (Dan’s) just trying to gather information, and that’s his right to do as someone who has no obligation to any particular organization,” said Crecy. “After negotiating exclusively with the UFC for the last few months, he’s exploring what options there are.”

- Henderson’s camp speaking to Sherdog

While it is clear that both sides are playing the PR game on these contract negotiations the story is getting to be a little bit silly. Henderson became a free agent seemingly out of nowhere and now we’re at the point where the organization claims Dan is asking to be the UFC’s highest paid fighter while his camp says that isn’t the case. The fan in me just wants Dan to either sign or leave so I can just watch him compete.
