Dana White must feel that the UFC’s heavyweight division is as weak as everyone says because he’s given longtime champion, Cain Velasquez, an immediate rematch against Fabricio Werdum.
Cain Velasquez officially earns rematch with Fabricio Werdum (per @ArielHelwani)

Werdum dominated Cain in their June title fight in Mexico City. It could’ve been Cain’s rust from several injuries or maybe it was the altitude in Mexico, regardless Dana White feels as though Cain is still the best contender for the title.
Expect this fight to land in the U.S., probably Las Vegas or Los Angeles. Cain needs to prove that he’s still the man he was 3 years ago or this may be his last title fight for quite some time.
