After injury forced Chris Weidman off the UFC 199 card, the UFC have confirmed this evening that Michael Bisping will step into the former champion’s place and will face Luke Rockhold in the UFC 199 main event.

UFC president Dana White announced the news moments ago on ESPN’s ‘SportsCenter’.

Weidman was forced off the card after he failed to push through a reoccurring back injury and may now be forced to undergo surgery on the injury.

UFC 199 is set for Inglewood, California on 4th June 2016.
