The former UFC Light Heavyweight number one contender Dan Henderson took to his Twitter account on New Years Eve to wish his fans and friends a very Happy New Year. Following his warm wishes, he poked fun at the UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Jon Jones. âWishin everyone a Happy New year!! Be safe! No drinking and driving and hitting telephone polesâ Hendo was referring to when the champ wrapped his Bentley last summer around a telephone pole in New York. Jones pleaded guilty to Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) following the incident. Henderson and Jones were expected to square off at UFC 151, unfortunately Hendo pulled out due to injury which forced the UFC to cancel the entire card. _________________________________________________________________________________ Follow @MMASuckaJer on Twitter and keep up with the latest from MMASucka.com on Twitter and Facebook
