With Dan Henderson (29-8 MMA, 6-2 UFC) injured, the UFC has canceled next week's UFC 151 event.

Henderson was scheduled to fight UFC light-heavyweight champion Jon Jones (16-1 MMA, 10-1 UFC) in the headliner of the top-heavy pay-per-view card.

According to UFC president Dana White, recent middleweight title challenger Chael Sonnen (28-12-1 MMA, 6-5 UFC) offered to take the bout, but Jones told him he wouldn't fight him on eight days' notice. That drew White's rage, as evident on today's media call.

UFC 151 was slated to take place next Saturday, Sept. 1, at Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas. It's not clear what will happen to the card's other 10 matchups.

According to White, Jones now will fight Lyoto Machida (18-3 MMA, 10-3 UFC) in the headliner of UFC 152, which take place Sept. 22 at Toronto's Air Canada Centre.

According to White, Henderson, who was competing for the first time since a Fight of the Year win over Mauricio "Shogun" Rua in November, suffered a knee injury. White isn't sure of a time table for the fighter's return.

"He tried to train and tried to continue to work out," White said. "He saw doctors, and there was nothing we could do to save that fight."

Stay tuned for more on this story.

Chael was a "top" middleweight? Was he? Cuz trt'd up gave silva the fight of his life, the first time, and handled stann? Barely squeaked by bisping. Then he surpasses lower tier lhws cuz he's SUPPOSEDLY a top middleweight? Not here to argue, but c'mon. It's jus ANOTHER pay day in sonnens eyes. He wouldn't come to fight. He woe jus come to get his ass kicced for a paychecc, AGAIN.

Quoted from a poster on another forum (agree 100%):

it doesn't take balls to accept a big money fight where you have nothing to lose.

it's insulting to the entire division that he even got offered.

What are you talkin about??? The guy kicks Andys ass for four and a half rounds the first time but since he lost he sucks?? Trippin

Sadly I have to back Jones here, if the proposed fight with Chael was for the title I think thats bullshit, but if its just for the show to go on, hes a bitch
