Sanko is UFC-first ever female color commentator. She started her career as an MMA fighter. However, she decided to opt out of fighting due to family reasons and returned to work as an interviewer in the UFC before becoming a commentator. While DC has fully turned into a member of UFC’s broadcast team after retiring from the sport in 2020. Chris Weidman makes occasional appearances on preview shows for UFC events.

The three hosts of the ‘Weigh In Show’ were discussing Sanko‘s admiration for rising star Shavkat Rakhmonov. However, things took a different turn after Cormier complemented the female commentator. A video clip of this instance from the show has gone viral on social media.

While the hosts were engaged in a conversation during the show, DC decided to give a compliment to ‘Fancy’. He said, ‘”You look beautiful with that hat. Like, stunning.” However, the former middleweight champion, Chris Weidman, found it inappropriate for DC to comment on a co-host like that. He interrupted Cormier and said, “You’ve gotten too far. You’ve gotta chill.” But the conversation didn’t end there.
