UFC 198 plays host to a heavyweight title tilt on Saturday, May 14, but that isn't the only big fight on the incredible card.
Bleacher Report's No. 3-ranked middleweight Ronaldo "Jacare" Souza takes on No. 6-ranked Vitor Belfort in the co-main event.
Souza returns to action for the first time since his contentious decision loss to Yoel Romero at UFC 194 in December. Prior to that contest, Souza reeled off eight consecutive wins. A victory in Curitiba, Brazil, this weekend puts him right back in the discussion for a title shot.
Also seeking another title berth is Belfort. The former light heavyweight champion failed at beating then champion Chris Weidman at UFC 187 in May, 2015, but he returned with an emphatic KO against Dan Henderson. Another win over an elite middleweight puts his name at the top of the list for a title shot.
This is an important and interesting 185-pound bout, and now is the time to break it all down before we get to the weekend's festivities. Let's move forward with the look at Jacare vs. Belfort.
