UFC light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier is moving up in weight to challenge reigning UFC heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic for his title. Now the fighter has come forward with some trash-talk for the record breaking title holder.
Cormier and Miocic are set to face off in the main event of the highly anticipated fight card of UFC 226. The live pay-per-view event is set to go down July 7 for International Fight Week inside the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nev.
Miocic recently took to Twitter to share an update from his latest training session with his fight fans.
“Aim higher. Stay focused. 2 months.”

However, Cormier has since fired back with a heated message for the fellow title holder. Check it out below:
“Sleep with that belt every night, cuz it’s coming back to San Jose with me! I like you but i gotta smash you! We can be friends after!”
