Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Light Heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier is expanding his horizons beyond the Octagon.
The decorated Olympic-level wrestler has been pegged to join Jon Anik to handle color commentary for the upcoming UFC Fight Night 96 event on Oct. 1, 2016, in Portland, Ore., for FOX Sports 1, which features a Bantamweight showdown between John Dodson and John Lineker (details) in the main event of the evening. As a result, Cormier will be unable to defend his 205-pound title at the upcoming UFC 205 pay-per-view (PPV) event that set to blow the roof of Madison Square Garden in New York, N.
