In a week full of UFC title fight announcements, the promotion has officially confirmed another bout with a big gold belt at stake.
In what will be the co-main event of UFC 194, Chris Weidman will be defending his title against the contender most fans were hoping he would step into the Octagon against — Luke Rockhold.
The Weidman-Rockhold bout will serve as the number two bout on the show under the headline attraction, which will feature the UFC Featherweight Championship unification between Jose Aldo and Conor McGregor.
UFC 194: Aldo vs. McGregor is scheduled to take place on Saturday, December 12, 2015 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
