Daniel Cormier Stunned by Muay Thai Warmups With Opponents Standing Nearby

Cormier admitted he was baffled watching Muay Thai fighters prep backstage. “I don’t understand,” the ex-UFC champ said, praising the action but questioning routines he saw as too relaxed. “They shadowbox, they get massaged, and they go fight. Nobody warms up by fighting,” he added. Cormier laughed at the tiger balm, the pre-fight massages, and opponents standing nearby—calling it “so weird.”
