UFC Adds Middleweight Title Eliminator Bout To UFC 194

Just when you thought UFC 194: Aldo vs. McGregor couldn’t get any bigger, it does.

On Monday evening, UFC announced what will likely be the number three fight on the UFC 194 fight card, as UFC once again put together the Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza vs. Yoel Romero fight, a former title eliminator fight that was scrapped due to injury.

With Jacare and Romero fighting on the UFC 194 card, it’s considered pretty likely that the winner will receive a title shot against the winner of the UFC 194 co-main event, as UFC Middleweight Champion Chris Weidman will put his gold on the line against the highly regarded Luke Rockhold.

Headlined by the UFC Featherweight title unification bout between Jose Aldo and Conor McGregor, UFC 194 takes place on Saturday, December 12, 2015 from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
