A fun tidbit we found in the third edition of UFC 200 Embedded, shows Brock Lesnar offering to spoon with Miesha Tate to make signing the UFC 200 posters easier.
This week, all the rage is UFC 200. We’ve had some bad news over the last 12 hours, so we figured we’d treat you to a fun little morsel that we discovered in the third installment of this week’s UFC Embedded episodes.
The segment features all the key players; Jon Jones, Daniel Cormier, Mark Hunt. Towards the end, we get the big bad, Brock Lesnar. His portion begins with him trying on gloves. If we go back to an earlier time in our mind palaces, we may recall that Lesnar required the largest gloves, a size 5x, when he last fought for the promotion.
Since then, the gloves have changed, and now the largest size is a 4x. Brock asks if there are any more 5x gloves, and is informed that there are none. The scene ends with him saying he’ll make due and leaving the gloves with a staffer to work on stretching them out.
Video can be viewed here at around the 6 minute mark for Brock’s glove segment and around the 7 minute mark for the portion with Miesha*
From there, the video picks up with Brock signing posters. He’s greeted by lightweight veteran, Joe Lauzon, who wishes him well, and Miesha Tate, who is patiently waiting to sign the posters. She can be heard saying “Yeah, but we’re both there,” as she points out that she and Brock’s images are placed so close on the poster as to impede her sitting down to sign simultaneously with him. She continues, “Maybe it would be better [if I wait].”
Lesnar, without missing a beat, looks up at her and says, “We can spoon.” Both laugh and Miesha mentions that they can sit crowded together to sign the posters “like this,” as she motions how it would look. Just another entry for the “Brock is a badass” files.
