UFC: Cormier Nearly Got a Heart Attack Due to Erslan

After the fight, former heavyweight and light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier entered the cage to interview Erslan. The Croatian fighter mentioned that this was a special fight for him as his wife is expecting their third child. Cormier, not fully understanding, shockingly asked, "Triplets? You're expecting triplets?!"

Erslan clarified that he and his wife already have two children and this will be their third. The UFC shared this moment on their Instagram account, describing the video as "Cormier nearly had a heart attack due to Erslan."

Erslan concluded by expressing his hope for a new contract. "I wanted to continue the stand-up fight, but he wanted to go to the ground. I adapted and knew I would be better. This is my first win in my last fight under contract. This could be a fairy tale, but I need a new contract. Only Mick Maynard (matchmaker) can mess this up. Don't be a bad witch and mess me up, ha, ha."
