UFC light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier made history over the weekend. That being said, former UFC heavyweight title holder Brock Lesnar managed to steal the spotlight for a few moments.
UFC 226 went down live on pay-per-view this Saturday, July 7, from within the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nev. for International Fight Week. Headlining the night’s event, Daniel Cormier went up in weight and challenged UFC heavyweight title holder Stipe Miocic for his belt.
Cormier managed to knockout Miocic within the first round, making D.C. only the second fighter in UFC history to ever simultaneously wield two division titles. In his post-fight interview, Cormier decided to call out the cage side Brock Lesnar for his first title defense.
Lesnar quickly took to the octagon and waded through multiple UFC officials before violently shoving Daniel Cormier and accepting the fight offer. Now crowd camera footage of the incident has revealed just how hard Lesnar really shoved the newly crowned two-division champion.
