Cormier made history and shocked the mixed martial arts world with his performance. He reigned supreme tonight with his excellent striking and clinch boxing. His power was too much for the heavyweight champion who went down with a perfectly timed punch to his chin. Cormier’s heavyweight record stays intact and he’s now the two weight division champion.
