He’s since moved down to light heavyweight then middleweight, where he has shown his best work inside the octagon. Cannonier (13-4 MMA, 6-4 UFC) had everything riding against him in his headliner with Jack Hermansson (20-5 MMA, 7-3 UFC). He came into Copenhagen – where his opponent had ties – as a sizable underdog and certainly as the B-side in the promotional buildup.
