Former light heavyweight title challenger Anthony “Rumble” Johnson is slated to make his return to action on Sept. 5 in one of the featured bouts of UFC 191. The Ultimate Fighting Championship announced the news on Thursday afternoon that Johnson will be trading blows with British bomber Jimi Manuwa.
Johnson will be fighting for the first time since being pounded on and submitted by Daniel Cormier for the vacant light heavyweight crown in May. Johnson had won nine consecutive battles -- including three in a row in his return to the UFC -- before losing to Cormier.
