Stipe Miocic regrets UFC 241 celebratory dance: ‘I’m an idiot’
Regarding his celebration that followed his win over Daniel Cormier at UFC 241, Stipe Miocic wishes he could have a do-over.
After knocking out Cormier on Saturday in Anaheim to become the new heavyweight champion, Miocic performed a little dance that was inspired by the 2003 comedy Old School. Miocic immediately regretted it.
“I just had no idea what I was doing,” Miocic said at the UFC 241 post-fight press conference. “I don’t know why I did it. I feel really dumb that I did it. Then I did like the ‘suck it’ (crotch chop). I don’t know why. I feel like I didn’t know what to do with my hands or my feet. I don’t know. I’m an idiot, just dumb.”
