Stem cell therapy means UFC champ Daniel Cormier won't defend his title until October
Joe Camporeale-USA TODAY SportsDon't expect a quick turnaround for the newly minted light heavyweight champion as he's about to undergo stem cell therapy to continue healing his injured knee.
Alexander Gustafsson may have been granted the next shot at the light heavyweight strap, but he'll have to wait a bit to get there. Daniel Cormier took advantage of the stripping of Jon Jones' title last April to plug himself right back into the title picture, and this time around wrestle away the vacant belt from challenger Anthony Johnson. But, that doesn't mean that Cormier was or is quite 100%. Perhaps even a lot less than 100%.
