Jon Jones has been stripped of his title and is suspended indefinitely.
Daniel Cormier replaces Jones to fight Anthony "Rumble" Johnson at UFC 187 for the UFC light heavyweight title.

Browne vs Arlovski, Benavidez vs Moraga, Dodson vs Makovsky, Dong Hyun Kim vs Josh Burkman, Uriah Hall vs Rafael Natal, and Rose Namajunas vs Nina Ansaroff.
