While arguably short on even, competitive matchups, UFC 187: Cormier vs Johnson is quite possibly the UFC’s most stacked card of the year. In addition to an army of recognizable name fighters, there is hardly an anti-action fight on the entire card, from the opening bout to the pair of title fights at the top. Chris Weidman makes the third defense of the middleweight title that’s starting to seem more and more at home on his waist, and after that Anthony “Rumble” Johnson fights short-notice fill-in Daniel Cormier for the UFC light heavyweight belt–at least until Jon Jones comes back from exile to reclaim it.
