Just 2 days ago, Wednesday, Dana White appeared on the show SportsCenter and announced the co-main event of UFC 173. It's the title eliminator at Light Heavyweight, Daniel Cormier vs. Dan Henderson!
The Light Heavyweight belt is on the line tomorrow at UFC 172 when Glover Teixiera tries to put an end to Jon Jones' 7 title defense streak. Alexander Gustafsson is already getting the winner of tomorrow's fight, and then Cormier vs. Henderson will decide who gets the shot after Gus.

This bout was originally aimed for UFC 175, but just 2 days ago was announced it will be happening on May 24th, at UFC 173.
UFC 173 is headlined by Renan Barao vs. TJ Dillashaw and also includes a welterweight bout, Robbie Lawler vs. Jake Ellenberger.
Who will get the chance at the belt after Gustafsson: Cormier or Hendo?
