LAS VEGAS – UFC president Dana White called Saturday night’s UFC 116
main event between Brock Lesnar and Shane Carwin “the biggest
heavyweight fight in UFC history,” and he’s not wasting any time
figuring out what comes next in the division.
As White promised to MMAjunkie.com before this
weekend’s event, Cain Velasquez will indeed get the next crack at the
title.
Second in line has already been determined, too, as White announced to a
small group of reporters following UFC 116’s post-event press
conference that the winner of the UFC 117 bout between Junior Dos Santos
and Roy Nelson will have the next crack at the title.
