Beneil Dariush and Drakkar Klose were scheduled for the featured bout spot of UFC 248, headlined by Israel Adesanya vs. Yoel Romero. Klose landed a nasty right hand that looked certain to close the show.

Joe Rogan, Daniel Cormier, and Jon Anik were overwhelmed by the back-and-forth nature of the fight. They almost fell backward from their chairs and the reactions gave birth to a legendary UFC meme.
Rogan, Anik, and Cormier are three of the most prominent commentators in the UFC. Rogan is the color commentator while Anik plays the role of the play-by-play guy. Cormier, on the other hand, provides analytical inputs from his world championship-caliber MMA career.
