Lesnar’s decision ends nearly 10 months of hype surrounding the possibility of a fight with Cormier and gives Miocic the rematch he’s been longing for. Cormier won the belt from Miocic last July at UFC 226. Afterward, the foundation for a potential Cormier vs. Lesnar showdown was set when Lesnar entered the octagon and confronted the newly crowned champion. Since that moment, Cormier – who defended the title vs. Derrick Lewis last November – has been vocal about his desire to fight Lesnar because of the money involved in headlining against one of the UFC’s all-time biggest pay-per-view draws.

However, White indicated earlier this month that Lesnar’s return to the octagon was far from a guarantee.

“(Cormier vs. Lesnar) isn’t even in the works,” White said during the UFC season news conference on April 12. “That fight might not even happen first. … We haven’t even talked to Brock. We don’t have a date for him right now. The first fight might be Stipe.”

Turns out, it will be.

Miocic (18-3 MMA, 12-3 UFC) has been adamant about getting a rematch with Cormier (22-1 MMA, 11-1 UFC) ever since his loss and hasn’t competed since. But Cormier has shot down those demands while waiting for Lesnar (5-3 MMA, 4-3 UFC). But Miocic can no longer be denied.
