    The Brazilian authorities have decided that Henderson doesn't have time to change his regime so the TRT exemption he was granted for his fight with Shogun will still be allowed. The UFC has recently aligned with the Nevada State Athletic Commission in banning TRT in combat sports. Henderson faces Shogun on March 23rd.

    That actually seems fair. Change the rules, give people some advanced warning.

    Dan fights with and without TRT so I'm okay with this. I don't think that he abuses it like Vitor. Hell Dan was on it and regulated on it well before it ever became an issue.

    I don't necessarily want it to be the case but this would be a fine time for Hendo to make a last stand.
