A trio of bouts have been added to UFC 187 as Donald Cerrone faces Khabib Nurmagomedov, Andrei Arlovski faces Travis Browne and Joseph Benavidez faces John Moraga. Cerrone will enter the fight riding a seven fight winning streak, last defeating Ben Henderson at UFC Fight Night: McGregor vs. Siver. Nurmagomedov will be returning to action after a year-plus layoff and he has yet to suffer a defeat in his seven year MMA career.

Arlovski is currently undefeated in his second UFC run, last defeating Antonio Silva at UFC Fight Night: Bigfoot vs. Arlovski II. Browne has won four of his last five fights in the UFC, with that lone loss coming to current UFC Interim Heavyweight Champion Fabricio Werdum.

Benavidez has been undefeated since losing to current UFC Flyweight Champion Demetrious Johnson at UFC On Fix IX. Moraga will enter the fight on a two fight winning streak, which includes a win over former Tachi Palace Fights Flyweight Champion Willie Gates. UFC 187 takes place on May 23rd from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada with Jon Jones and Anthony Johnson headlining.
