A light heavyweight title fight will headline UFC 210.

UFC officials today announced that current champ Daniel Cormier will put his title on the line against hard-hitting slugger Anthony Johnson in a rematch of the pair’s initial May 2015 meeting.

Cormier is currently ranked No. 2 in the latest USA TODAY Sports/MMAjunkie MMA light heavyweight rankings, while Johnson is just behind at No. 3.

UFC 210 takes place April 8 at KeyBank Center in Buffalo, N.Y. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on FS1 and UFC Fight Pass.

Tickets go on sale for the card next month.

Cormier (18-1 MMA, 7-1 UFC) and Johnson (22-5 MMA, 6-1 UFC) first met at UFC 187 with a then-vacant UFC light heavyweight title on the line. While “Rumble” scored an early knockdown, Cormier battled back to net a third-round submission win.

Cormier has since gone on to add one successful title defense over Alexander Gustafsson at UFC 192, as well as a UFC 200 win over Anderson Silva in a non-title fight.

Meanwhile, Johnson has battled his way back to Cormier with knockout wins over Glover Teixeira, Ryan Bader and Jimi Manuwa. All three earned the slugger “Performance of the Night” bonuses.

The rematch was initially expected to take place at this past December’s UFC 206 event, but a Cormier injury forced the champ to withdraw, and Johnson elected to wait for the fight to be rebooked.
