UFC 210: Cormier vs. Johnson 2 is an upcoming mixed martial arts event produced by the Ultimate Fighting Championship that will be held on April 8, 2017 at the KeyBank Center in Buffalo, New York.
The event will be the second that the UFC has hosted in Buffalo, and first since UFC 7 in 1995.
A UFC Light Heavyweight Championship rematch between the current champion Daniel Cormier and Anthony Johnson is expected to headline the event. The pairing met previously in May 2015 at UFC 187 with Cormier winning the fight (and the vacant title) via submission in the third round. This rematch was originally scheduled to take place at UFC 206, but Cormier pulled out due to a groin injury and the bout was scrapped.
