Early last week, UFC 170 was in jeopardy of losing the co-main event since Rashad Evans was forced to step out due to a knee injury. Fortunetly, the UFC pulled some strings to keep Daniel Cormier on the fight card this weekend, and found newcomer Patrick Cummins to face him inside the Octagon. Unfamiliar with Cummins? You can watch a slick interview with him right here to get the back story on how he got the once in a lifetime offer directly from UFC President Dana White.
Cormier will now officially square off against Cummins at UFC 170 in a light heavyweight bout, while UFC Women’s Bantamweight Champion Ronda Rousey will look to defend the strap for the fourth straight time against former Olympic wrestler Sara McMann.
