    Major news expected at the top of the hour with DFW calling a press conference with the media. Speculation only at this point but the expectation is that Dan Henderson is injured and out of UFC 151, and without that main event the entire card could be in jeopardy. Developing.

    Kevin Iole (Yahoo) expected to break the story (direct source from UFC).

    FRB says it isn't Chael or Machida getting the shot.

    Latest rumour is that Hendo is out, Jones has been offered Sonnen but turned him down, and the PPV may be postponed or canceled.

    FRB is reporting that Hendo is out and Jones isn't fighting. Sonnen is challenging Jones on Twitter but it sounds like that fight isn't happening.
