Mark J. Rebilas / USA TODAY
The UFC 200 main event has changed once again.
The women's bantamweight title fight between Miesha Tate and Amanda Nunes will headline the historic card, the promotion announced Thursday, with Brock Lesnar versus Mark Hunt as the co-main.
Earlier Thursday night it was announced Daniel Cormier would remain on the card to take on Anderson Silva in the wake of Jon Jones' removal for a potential doping violation.
The jockeying makes Tate-Nunes the fourth announced main event for the card. Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz were pulled as headliners in April.
