Rejuvenated former Pride FC champion, Dan Henderson has spoken about his future in the UFC and which weight class we can expect to see him at following his impressive outing at UFC 88 against Rousimar Palhares.
Talking on taggradio.com, Henderson made it clear the choice in weight class depends on the opponents offered to him, saying:

“I told Joe Silva I wanted to stay at 185 because I wanted another shot at (current UFC middleweight champion Anderson) Silva. I don't want to stay down there if I am not guaranteed a title shot.”
When questioned about when we might expect to see him back in action, Henderson said:

“I would love to fight again -- maybe at the big end-of-the-year show. I will be ready to go. (I'm) back to training in a couple of weeks.”
It is clear that after 19 months without a win, his outing at UFC 88 was exactly what the 38 year old needed to re-energise his career and give him a push towards another possible shot at the title in 2009.
