It’s finally here, UFC 200 fight week is upon us and we have a historic three day run of events to anticipate. At the head of the card we have a long awaited rematch between light-heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier and his predecessor/junior title holder Jon Jones. The co-main attraction for the evening features former heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar’s return, as he faces the heavy hitting knockout artist Mark Hunt.
The women’s bantamweight strap is on the line as Miesha Tate attempts to carry on her momentum against Amanda Nunes. ‘Cupcake’ submitted Holly Holm at UFC 195 in a stunning fifth round rally, and her Brazilian opponent Nunes is coming off three straight wins. In the absence of the UFC featherweight champion Conor Mcgregor, the interim belt is up for grabs as Jose Aldo and Frankie Edgar are set to rematch.
Former heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez rounds off the very stacked main card in a showdown with Travis Browne. Aldo featured on the blockbuster July 9 milestone card are Johny Hendricks, TJ Dillashaw, Gegard Mousasi, Kelvin Gastelum, Sage Northcutt, Diego Sanchez, Jim Miller, Takanori Gomi and many more.
