Jon Jones was stripped of his UFC light heavyweight championship and it was immediately announced that Daniel Cormier would step in to take on Anthony Johnson in the main event at UFC 187.
According to Bodog.ca, Cormier is coming in as a slight favorite against Johnson despite losing his last outing to Jones. “DC” is a -150 (2/3) favorite, with “Rumble” a +120 (6/5) under dog.
Cormier (15-1) was undefeated as a mixed martial artist until last month, when he was defeated by champ Jon Jones in a highly anticipated title fight at UFC 182.
