At UFC on Fox 15, Lyoto Machida and Luke Rockhold will meet in a main event bout that could determine the next title challenger in the middleweight division.
Nine months ago, Machida gave 185-pound champion Chris Weidman one of the biggest tests he had in MMA. However, the Brazilian still came up short and had to get back in line for another shot at the middleweight belt. The Dragon responded with a knockout win over C.B. Dollaway and will now look to take another big step forward against Rockhold.
Since losing to Vitor Belfort, who is set to challenge Weidman next month, Rockhold has stopped three opponents in a row.
