As expected, Jon Jones and Alexander Gustafsson will square off in the main event of UFC 232 with the vacant light heavyweight title on the line.
Multiple outlets confirmed the booking following an initial report from ESPN.com on Wednesday. Daniel Cormier will be stripped of the 205-pound belt as he prepares to defend the heavyweight crown against Derrick Lewis at UFC 230 on Nov. 3.
UFC 232 takes place at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on Dec. 29 and also features a women’s featherweight title clash pitting Cristiane Justino against Amanda Nunes.
