3 Opponents for Daniel Cormier if Brock Lesnar does not return to UFC

#2 Stipe Miocic

Miocic does not like the fact that he lost his fight against Cormier. He had been expected to win the fight and had entered the Octagon as the natural favourite to pick it up.

He had the reach and height advantage on Cormier, who had gone into the matchup with what the critics called, 'terrible cardio'.

However, Cormier got into his reach and landed the fatal blows that would see Miocic lose the title.

Miocic has been vocal about wanting a rematch against Cormier, who has only talked about Brock Lesnar so far. Will there be a rematch if Lesnar does not return?

There very well could be.
