As expected next month’s UFC 141 headliner between former UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar and incoming ex-Strikeforce titleholder Alistair Overeem will determine a No. 1 contender.
UFC officials today formally announced the stakes of the five-round non-title fight.
As today’s press release stated, “The winner will be crowned the No. 1 contender and earn a title shot in the new year.”
