DC has been pushing for a trilogy fight with Stipe Miocic for a while now. He lost the title to Stipe at UFC 241. It is unclear whether he will receive his title shot, as he plans to retire soon. Also, Stipe is desperately needed at the frontlines because of his job as a firefighter-paramedic.
Nevertheless, Cormier will be commentating at UFC 249 but he will not be returning home soon.
