Our hopes and dreams came tumbling down when word broke loose that Jon Jones and Daniel Cormier were scratched from UFC 178 due to a Jones leg injury.
The pre-fight theatrical work presented by both Jones and Cormier had fans wanting more. This wasn’t mere fight advertisement and a build of hype, but rather a genuine hate for one another.
And before long, our spirits were uplifted when it was briskly announced that the two would headline UFC 182 to start the new year.
UFC 182 will take place on January 3, 2015 at the MGM Grand Garden Area in Las Vegas, NV.
In one of the most sumptuous light heavyweight bouts of all time, “Bones” and “DC” will close the door to their feud—at least for the time being.
In our drawn out anticipation for UFC 182, “Bratt Mamley” provides us with a video preview for ‘Jones vs. Cormier’.
