"Jamie Varner's comeback will have to wait a little longer.
While the WEC had hoped to stage a matchup between lightweight champion Varner and new interim champion Ben Henderson in December, such a scenario has essentially been ruled out by Henderson's camp after the five-round thriller that took place this weekend.
After the grueling 25-minute struggle, Henderson will need some time off before jumping back into a new training camp, and the title fight will take place in the early months of 2010, Henderson's manager Jason Genet told FanHouse."

Makes sense, they are both from there and AZ is a jewel! An absolutely untapped resource for this sport. I heard the UFC is planning a stop there in 2010 as well. It's also rather nice of the org to consider it because both of those guys are from and train in AZ, so at least the headliners wont have to travel far.
