UFC 252 faceoff highlights: Stipe Miocic, Daniel Cormier meet one last time before fight

LAS VEGAS – After the UFC 252 weigh-ins took place Friday, so too did fighter faceoffs, and MMA Junkie was on the scene.

This includes, of course, the main event, the heavyweight title trilogy fight between champion Stipe Miocic (19-3 MMA, 13-3 UFC) and former titleholder Daniel Cormier (22-2 MMA, 11-2 UFC).

. It also includes the co-feature bantamweight bout between Sean O'Malley (12-0 MMA, 4-0 UFC) and Marlon Vera (17-6-1 MMA, 9-5 UFC). In all, 20 of 22 fighters on the card hit their weight marks Friday.

UFC 252 takes place Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN/ESPN+. 

While you count down the hours to the summer’s most anticipated fight, you can watch the fighters face off for the last time before they meet in the cage in the video above.
