Vitor Belfort and Dan Henderson pose for their 2006 fight at Pride 32.

Vitor Belfort and Dan Henderson will likely meet for the second time in their careers, this time in Brazil.

According to a report from “UFC Tonight” on Tuesday evening, UFC President Dana White confirmed to the news show that Belfort and Henderson have verbally agreed to face each other at a yet-to-be announced card on Nov. 9.

Belfort (23-10) recently wrote on Twitter that he desires a fight with Chael Sonnen, following the American’s defeat of “Shogun” Rua at UFC Fight Night 26. After tonight’s news, however, Belfort will face a different American in Henderson. The match-up is the first accepted by Belfort after several offerings from UFC matchmakers, including a declined bout with Lyoto Machida.

Henderson (29-10) was last seen taking on Rashad Evans at UFC 161, a match wherein Evans edged the Team Quest mixed martial artist with a split-decision win. The fighter has for the most part remained out of the spotlight since his loss in June, but White, according to “UFC Tonight,” has communicated with the fighter and he’s agreed to compete in Brazil.

Belfort and Henderson have faced each other before. The two veterans first met at Pride 32 in 2006, a match that saw Henderson get the better of Belfort with a unanimous decision.

UFC officials are yet to announce the location for the Nov. 9 card, but GRACIEMAG.com will have further news as more information becomes available.

Confident he’ll be fighting Georges Saint-Pierre for the definitive welterweight title at the November 17 UFC event, interim title holder Carlos Condit addressed the fight humbly in a conversation with GRACIEMAG.com. The American admits that he’ll need to see some improvements if he’s to leave the octagon with the coveted belt.

“It’s a tough task. He’s got great wrestling, great Jiu-Jitsu, really good standup. So I’ll have to improve quite a bit over the next couple of months and I think I’ll be able to fight a good fight,” he tells Nalty Junior in the interview. “He’s great with his takedowns and his control on the ground … So I think his top control is his best skill, so that’s what I’m going to have to overcome. … I know that most likely I’m going to end up on my back on the ground.”

With a ten-year professional career in the sport, Carlos Condit (28w, 5l) has faith in his game and his coaching staff, and explains how the training will be arranged so as to avoid conflicts of interest with his teammate, as well as why the similarities between his fight and the falling-out of Jon Jones and Rashad Evans end at them training at the same place.
