Henderson.
Absolutely, though my feelings are Yoel definitely shouldn't have to fight yet another top 5 contender. He's already beat 3 in a row, I don't think that's ever been done before without getting a title shot. Also read on Reddit about how much Silva has helped the UFC so agree there too.
It would mess up the division more if Silva won though so there is that risk.
