UFC heavyweight and light-heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier confirmed Tuesday in an interview with Conan O'Brien that Brock Lesnar will be his next opponent.
On the late-night talk show, Cormier said, "He's gonna be the next guy I fight," in reference to Lesnar:
After Cormier beat Stipe Miocic for the heavyweight title at UFC 226 on Saturday, Lesnar entered the Octagon and shoved the new champ.
Shortly thereafter, UFC president Dana White confirmed that Lesnar was back in the UFC fold, per Greg Beacham of the Associated Press (h/t the Denver Post).
