Daniel Cormier Tells Brock Lesnar To Bring The Universal Championship To Their UFC Fight Next Year

On Friday, Brock Lesnar beat Braun Strowman to become Universal Champion and on Saturday, Daniel Cormier chocked out Derrick Lewis to retain his UFC Championship. Could we get a champion vs. champion bout?

On Saturday night, Daniel Cormier main evented UFC 230 and choked out Derrick Lewis in the middle of the second round to retain his heavyweight championship. In the process, he became the first fighter to defend titles in two weight classes but it appears as if he's still focusing on Brock Lesnar. 

Cormier, a wrestling fan who may or may not end up serving as a commentator on SmackDown Live when it moves to Fox, was clearly aware of Lesnar's Universal Championship victory as he told him to bring that title into the Octagon next year. "Bring that belt with you when you come to my house," he said, teasing the long rumoured fight between the two which still hasn't been 100% confirmed. 

It would certainly be interesting seeing Cormier defeat Lesnar for the Universal Championship but how WWE would feel about that is another matter. Then again, they probably wouldn't say no to the publicity that would generate! For now, it appears as if we're going to have to wait and see...
