Hendricks said if St-Pierre is going to fight at 185 pounds, he should get the opportunity.
“Who would want to see him and Bisping, or me and Bisping? I’m pretty sure the whole world would much rather see that,”
Hendricks told MMAjunkie he hoped to be healthy enough to fight three months later at UFC 211, which takes place May 13 in Dallas, not far from his adopted hometown of Fort Worth, Texas.
“I’m hoping that I’m injury free enough,” he said. “I’m going to check on my hand. I think it’s a stinger. It still hurts. It feels like the little bones in between my bigger ones.
“If I had three months to fight in Dallas, that’s plenty of time, because I could get a strength and conditioning coach that can get me to where I need to be.”
Hendricks once complained that poor hand wraps led to less powerful punches against St-Pierre at UFC 167. But he had nothing but good things to say about his work on Sunday, adding the sky is the limit in his new division.
Prior to his fight with Lombard, Hendricks said he’d have a message for St-Pierre if he came out victorious. Instead, he praised the ex-champ’s native Canada, where he’s gone 4-0.
The calling out, he left for the post-fight presser.
“I would just say sorry for the Canadians,” Hendricks said. “I’m going to have to beat his face in, definitely if he comes to 185. Because that’s a fight that I’ve been really looking for. And now that I’ve got a win under my belt at 185, he’s a newcomer at 185.”
