Rising contender Jared Cannonier will be back in the Octagon for his third middleweight assignment when he faces Jack Hermansson in the UFC Fight Night 160 headliner on Saturday in Copenhagen, Denmark. Cannonier began his Ultimate Fighting Championship career as a heavyweight, but just five years later, he finds himself competing at 185 pounds. Since he moved to middleweight, he has posted back-to-back victories, both by technical knockout.
