Former UFC champion Daniel Cormier found himself at the center of attention during a recent UFC 307 weigh-in show. The typically composed commentator took on a challenge that left fans in stitches: experiencing a period pain simulator.
As part of the festivities, Cormier, alongside co-host Laura Sanko and others, decided to test out a device designed to mimic the discomfort many women experience during their Period. Little did Cormier know, he was in for wild pain that would have viewers rolling on the floor laughing.
The moment Cormier activated the simulator, his reaction was instantaneous and dramatic. Unable to withstand even a second of the simulated pain, he frantically yelled “Stop! Stop! Stop!” repeatedly, much to the amusement of his co-hosts and fans watching at home.
This lighthearted segment quickly went viral, with social media buzzing about Cormier’s over-the-top response. One fan humorously commented, “Go faster, go harder,” while another praised Cormier’s infectious personality, saying, “DC is so funny, how can you hate on him?”
The incident shed light on a often-overlooked aspect of women’s health, as many viewers learned that period pain can sometimes rival the intensity of a heart attack. Cormier’s inability to endure even a brief moment of the simulated discomfort left many speculating that most men would likely fare no better.
Beyond the laughs, this moment showcased Cormier’s willingness to put himself in uncomfortable situations for the sake of entertainment and education. It’s this kind of authentic, relatable behavior that has endeared him to fans throughout his career, both in and out of the octagon.
In the midst of the humor, Cormier has also been busy with more serious matters. He recently conducted an interview with rising UFC star Joaquin Buckley, addressing a previous online disagreement between the two. The interview, which became more heated than expected, centered around Buckley’s callouts of other fighters and some misquoted statements.
As UFC 307 approaches, all eyes will be on Buckley as he prepares to face veteran Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson in what could be a career-defining bout. Meanwhile, Cormier continues to prove why he’s one of the most beloved figures in the sport, capable of handling both intense competition and lighthearted moments with equal aplomb.
