Saturday night played host to a familiar scene, Daniel Cormier crying after coming up short against Jon Jones for the UFC light heavyweight title.
After losing a competitive decision in their first bout at UFC 182, Cormier was seen in tears backstage, being consoled by his teammate Cain Velasquez; after getting violently knocked out in the main event of UFC 214, Cormier broke down in the cage during a post-fight interview with Joe Rogan. It was, for many, a heart-wrenching moment of raw emotion.
