UFC Fight Night 68 was supposed to feature Daniel Cormier vs. Ryan Bader, but after Cormier replaced Jon Jones at UFC 187, a new main event was put in place.
Former PRIDE welterweight and middleweight champion Dan Henderson will take on No. 13-ranked contender Tim Boetsch in a middleweight tilt to headline the New Orleans card.
Henderson lost his last two outings to Daniel Cormier and Gegard Mousasi and will try to revitalize his career one last time this weekend. Boetsch remains a ranked middleweight, but he is 2-4 in his last six fights. This would appear to be their last hope at significance in the division.
This is a fight between two men in desperate need of a win. It does not hold much divisional importance, but it will mean a lot for their careers.
Their backs are against the wall. Could that produce an exciting brawl of a fight? Let's break down the UFC Fight Night 68 main event between Dan Henderson and Tim Boetsch.
