Fabricio Werdum trolls Cain Velasquez and Travis Browne on Instagram

bjpenndotcom - April 30, 2016

UFC heavyweight champion Fabricio Werdum is never one to shy away from taunting or trolling his opponents. Ahead of his UFC 198 fight against Stipe Miocic on May 14th, Werdum took some time to taunt Cain Velasquez and Travis Browne, who are fighting at UFC 200 on July 9th. Ironically, Werdum has previously defeated both men, and they are likely fighting for the #1 contender spot at heavyweight. Werdum defeated Velasquez for the heavyweight championship back at UFC 188 via submission to unify the UFC heavyweight championship. In addition, he defeated Travis Browne back in 2014 at UFC on FOX 11.
