Daniel Cormier is no stranger to the world of combat sports. A former UFC heavyweight and light heavyweight champion, Cormier has made a name for himself as one of the greatest fighters to ever step into the octagon. Standing at 5’11 and weighing in at around 240 pounds, Cormier is an imposing figure in his own right.

However, a recent Instagram post from the retired fighter revealed that even he can be dwarfed by someone else’s size. In the post, Cormier can be seen standing next to WWE wrestler Omos, who is set to face off against Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania 39.

“I mean come on I checked in with the giant OMOS before he takes on the beast Brock Lesnar tomorrow night. It’ll drop tomorrow before mania night two but I honestly have never been around a human so big!”, Cormier wrote in his Instagram post.

Cormier‘s caption reveals his awe at the sheer size of Omos, stating that he had never been around a human so big. This sentiment was echoed by many of Cormier‘s fans, who marveled at the size of the WWE star. The picture went viral on Instagram and got many reactions. MMA fighter Frankie Edgar commented – “DC my height”. Here are other fan reactions –

One commented – “It’s hard to convince someone who doesn’t watch MMA that DC would finish this guy OMOS in 3 minutes”

Another one said – “UFC needs to create the super heavyweight weight class”

One said – “I wont ever understand why people enjoy those fake fights”

One commented – “They are all the same size on the ground,, – Tony Ferguson”

Another questioned – “Could you take him tho?”

Another said – “That’s an actual giant. DC is a big man, imagine a regular sized human next to him. Jeez.”

The history between Daniel Cormier and Brock Lesnar

The fact that Cormier was standing next to Omos is particularly interesting. This is because of the history between Cormier and Lesnar. At UFC 229, Daniel Cormier had just defeated Stipe Miocic to become the double champ. After the fight, Lesnar stormed into the cage and challenged Cormier after pushing him.

The two were going to face off in a highly anticipated UFC heavyweight title fight back in 2019. But the fight never happened, as Lesnar decided to retire from MMA. The cancellation of the fight was a disappointment for many fans.
