UFC 204 photos: The best of Michael Bisping vs. Dan Henderson

MANCHESTER, England – Check out the best photos from Saturday’s UFC 204 title bout and “Fight of the Night” winner between middleweight champion Michael Bisping and challenger Dan Henderson.

In the pay-per-view headliner at Manchester Arena in Manchester, England, Bisping (30-7 MMA, 20-7 UFC) survived early knockdowns and some heavy facial damage to earn a close unanimous-decision win over Henderson (32-15 MMA, 9-9 UFC).

Bisping became the UFC’s all-time wins leader with the victory (watch the Bisping vs. Henderson video highlights) while Henderson heads to retirement without the one title that eluded him during a historic 20-year MMA career.
