UFC 187 will mark the first time in more than four years that a new light heavyweight champion will be crowned.
Whether it will be Anthony “Rumble” Johnson’s powerful striking or Daniel Cormier‘s wrestling that reigns supreme is up for debate.

Cormier knows too well what a UFC championship defeat tastes like, having lost to former kingpin Jon Jones back at UFC 182, so the former Olympian will give his best effort ever.
As for Johnson, who has seemingly transcended the division overnight, defeating Cormier would put a cherry on top of his rather admirable return to MMA relevance.
