Coleman’s duty

Dana was in the process of being asked about the idea when he said “done”. Just recently, Coleman seemed to indicate that he wasn’t going to get the call – but all that appears to have changed.

Mark has done some incredible things throughout his life and career, but his most recent act seems to have taken him to a new level of popularity. He has certainly earned the right to do this, and it’ll be great to witness at such a landmark event like UFC 300.
