Nelson’s manager, Mike Kogan, today told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) that the heavyweight’s deal calls for nine fights in the octagon. He declined to disclose financial terms of the contract, citing its confidentiality provision. For the first fight of the new deal, “Big Country” is scheduled to meet Daniel Cormier (12-0 MMA, 1-0 UFC) in the pay-per-view co-main event of UFC 166, which takes place Oct. 19 at Toyota Center in Houston. Nelson (19-8 MMA, 6-4 UFC) looks to rebound from a lackluster showing in his most recent fight, which served as the last obligation of his previous contract. He faced Stipe Miocic on short notice this past month at UFC 161 and was thoroughly outstruck before losing a unanimous decision.
