All eyes are now focused on the heavyweight bout between Brock Lesnar and Mark Hunt on Saturday after the UFC pull the plug of the Jon Jones – Daniel Cormier weekend clash.
Cormier was supposed to defend his light heavyweight belt from Jones this Saturday but his challenger tested positive for a banned substance in an out-of-competition sample taken June 16 by USADA, which administers the UFC’s anti-drug policy.
UFC President Dana White announced the dramatic change in UFC card Wednesday night, just three days before the mixed martial arts promotion’s landmark show.
Which now brings us to Lesnar and Hunt heavyweight bout. What’s in it for them now that they are Saturday’s main event?
