It was a rematch of the highest order. Would Daniel Cormier be able to survive against Stipe Miocic a second time, or even knock him out as he did the first time they met?
Unfortunately, the answer was no. Stipe Miocic was the man who stood tall with the Championship once the main event of the UFC 241 pay-per-view was over.
Daniel Cormier responds to his UFC 241 loss
Daniel Cormier might be amazing in victory, but he is gracious in his losses as well. He took the time to write a post thanking and apologizing to the different people who had helped him to prepare for the fight, as well as those who were important in his life. He congratulated Stipe Miocic and his team as well.
He then went on to say that it had been an amazing journey, and he was going to decide what he was going to do next. He let the fans know that he would inform everyone the moment he decided.
It appears Cormier will be deciding where he has more fights left in him, or whether it is finally time to hang up his gloves.
