Former UFC dual champion Daniel Cormier is using his downtime during the coronavirus pandemic to do some good for the next generation of amateur wrestlers. Cormier (22-2 MMA, 12-2 UFC), a former light heavyweight and heavyweight champion, already does more than his fair share for the wrestling community. He is the head coach at Gilroy High School in California, but that still doesn’t satisfy him in terms of giving back to the sport that played a massive role in his overall athletic success. In collaboration with the customized celebrity video messaging service Taki, Cormier is donating money to Wrestling Prep , an organization that not only teaches the physical and mental craft of wrestling, but also provides recruiting and SAT preparation for those making the jump from high school to college. “These online seminars that they are having are now starting to really explode,” Cormier told MMA Junkie Radio
