Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) just completed its ceremonial weigh-in event (replay here) for the upcoming UFC 241: “Cormier vs. Miocic 2” pay-per-view (PPV) extravaganza, taking place tomorrow night (Sat., Aug. 17, 2019) inside Honda Center in Anaheim, California.
UFC 241 will be headlined by the five-round heavyweight title rematch between reigning division kingpin, Daniel Cormier, and former division titleholder, Stipe Miocic. Check out their face off in the embedded video above.
Former lightweight champion, Anthony Pettis, will welcome back Nate Diaz back to the Octagon after a three-year hiatus in UFC 241’s highly-anticipated welterweight co-main event. You can see them come nose-to-nose below:
