Demetrious Johnson may not be the most popular champ in UFC history (or even on the current UFC roster), and UFC 191 may not be the most anticipated event of the latter third of 2015, but it is a really solid, fun card. While Johnson’s rematch against challenger John Dodson sits atop the card, a bevy of fun action fights fill out the rest of the action. Former heavyweight champs Frank Mir and Andrei Arlvoski meet for the first time in their long careers, top 10 LHWs Anthony Johnson and Jimi Manuwa lock horns in a battle of action strikers, and on the undercard Paul Felder will look to rebound from his first loss against Ross Pearson. Add to all that a high stakes bantamweight bout between John Lineker and Francisco Rivera and you’ve got a whole barrel of fun.
