Vera and Cruz squared off in the UFC San Diego headliner on August 13. The fight turned out to be a back-and-forth encounter for as long as it lasted. In the fourth round, a perfectly timed head kick by Marlon Vera was enough to put Dominick Cruz away. Cormier, who called the fight alongside Michael Bisping, was caught on camera looking distraught in the immediate aftermath of the knockout.

One individual suggested that 'DC' was holding back tears: "I know DC holding back tears you could see it in his eyes," wrote @HYoungboy20 on Twitter. Another individual noted that Cormier shouldn't be blamed for not being able to hold back his emotions after watching his friend get knocked out inside the octagon. "Can you blame em’ I understand his job is about being neutral but at the end of the day that's his friend and someone he obviously cares about," wrote @Brian2000B_ on Twitter.

Some of them jibed at the former middleweight champion looking very excited during the finish. One individual claimed that Bisping was "jumping like a madman," insinuating that the Englishman's reaction to his colleague getting stopped wasn't in good taste. "You could see how heartbroken DC was when Cruz got KOd, despite all their past issues. Bisping was jumping like a madman. Shows the character of them after seeing their friend and colleague KOd," wrote @jaketrek 22 on Twitter. jakejava@jaketrek22@SpinninBackfist You could see how heartbroken DC was when Cruz got KOd, despite all their past issues.

Shows the character of them after seeing their friend and colleague KOd Bisping has since responded to the tweet, claiming that he wasn't favoring anyone in the fight and that his reaction came from being shocked at the manner of the finish. He further added that whenever he watches fights, his "passion for the sport" always leaves him immersed in what's happening inside the cage and that's what caused him to react the way he did. "It had nothing to do with it being Cruz or Chito. I’m often out of my seat for massive shock ko’s like that.
