Signed, sealed, and soon to be delivered.
Dan Henderson vs. Daniel Cormier light heavyweight tilt is now official for the UFC 173 Memorial Day Weekend pay-per-view (PPV) co-main event, which is set to go down inside MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, on May 24, 2014, according to UFC President Dana White.
The promotion's head cheese made the announcement earlier today on ESPN's SportsCenter, noting that the winner could be next in line (behind Alexander Gustafsson) for a division title shot.
UFC 173: "Barao vs. Dillashaw" will feature a re-worked main event that pits reigning bantamweight champion Renan Barao opposite 135-pound upstart TJ Dillashaw, after a last-minute surgery forced the original headliner to be postponed until July.
Elsewhere on the card, Robbie Lawler will bang it out with Jake Ellenberger for the right to stay alive in the 170-pound title chase, while Francisco Rivera and Takeya Mizugaki hook 'em up in bantamweight action.
