Tonight in Anaheim, Stipe Miocic reclaimed his UFC heavyweight championship by knocking out Daniel Cormier in the fourth round.
It brought an end to a spectacular heavyweight contest, and potentially brought an end to Cormier’s stellar UFC career.
Check out what Miocic and Cormier’s fellow fighters had to say.
I guess losses don’t matter when you’re getting paid so much on the front end.
