Musician, philanthropist, environmentalist, animal rights activist, producer, writer, reserve deputy sheriff, 7th-dan black belt in Aikido, and somewhat boyishly handsome action film star, Steven ‘Fritão’ Seagal recebtly showed up at the UFC training center in Las Vegas to teach some last minute secret techniques to Daniel Cormier, ahead of his fight with light heavyweight champion Jon Jones.

“So here’s the thing,” began Seagal, solemnly. “If there’s anybody here, who’s going to see what I teach you, and tell anybody about it… they can’t be there.”

“Daniel has asked me to show him a couple of things that are unusual. And I will do that. We’ll see how that goes.”

After, the master spoke with the cameraman.

“You know very well what could happen if he does one of those right,” said Seagal. “If he does one of those right, the game is over, the fight is over. You know that.

“He’s a quick study, man. He was learning stuff try nicely and very quickly. I was impressed.”
