QUOTABLES: Dana White compares epic UFC 139 Henderson-Rua bout to Bonnar-Griffin 1

By: Jamie Penick, MMATorch Editor-in-Chief

"Bonnar-Griffin was three rounds between two guys who were trying to get into the UFC. Bonnar-Griffin is an amazing fight and an important fight for us at that point in time to get into the UFC. That fight I think for the mainstream people that tuned in for the first time on Spike, there was a lot of stand-up and back and forth and display of heart and will and then both guys get the contract? If this was the WWE, we couldn't have scripted that thing better than the way that it went for us that night.

But when you look at the level that (Henderson and Shogun) are at and the big fights that these two have had, and what was on the line, and going five rounds, and the way this fight went. It was one of the sickest fights I've ever seen."

-Dana White compares UFC 139's epic Dan Henderson vs. Mauricio "Shogun" Rua bout with the Ultimate Fighter Finale bout between Forrest Griffin and Stephan Bonnar that the UFC has held as their "top fight of all time" (via MMAWeekly.com).

Penick's Analysis: Bonnar-Griffin I was huge for the UFC because it literally was a game-changer for the organization. That fight was a brawl, and it was hugely entertaining, bringing in more viewers the longer it went on and instantly converting new fans to the sport. But Henderson-Rua was at a higher level than that fight, with two longtime top fighters still vying for contention and featuring even more drama in a five round fight. It really will go down as one of the best fights in UFC history.
