Bisping and Mousasi offer to face Cormier as Jones' UFC 200 replacement

Shortly after Jon Jones was pulled out of UFC 200 stemming from an out-of-competition drug test by USADA, several fighters have offered to step in. This included heavyweight Roy Nelson, and now Gegard Mousasi, who are both fighting on this same weekend.

Mousasi, who held light heavyweight titles in DREAM and Strikeforce, is willing to move back up and compete in a 5-round title bout against Daniel Cormier.

@danawhite @lorenzofertitta @ufc I am ready to replace Jon Jones against @dc_mma for the LHW Belt or Main Event.
