Jon Anik reacts to Daniel Cormier-Jake Paul confrontation at UFC 261: ‘Not a bead of sweat on DC’s forehead’

While the stars of sport and screen were out in full force at this past Saturday night’s UFC 261 event, nobody invoked more of a reaction than Jake Paul.

Paul, fresh off of his first-round KO win over Ben Askren at the Triller Fight Club event earlier this month, was in attendance for the UFC’s return to full capacity at VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville, Fla.

During the preliminary card, a “F*ck Jake Paul” chant broke out in the arena. Former two-division UFC champion Daniel Cormier was in the broadcast booth and at the next break in the action, Cormier got up out of his chair and confronted the YouTube star-turned-professional boxer.
