Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) held a special media press conference earlier this afternoon (Feb. 20, 2014) at Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, to promote UFC 170, which takes place this weekend (Sat., Feb. 22, 2014) in "Sin City."

Naturally, the two talented mixed martial arts (MMA) females who will headline the pay-per-view (PPV) event, women's bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey and top contender Sara McMann, were on hand to answer questions about their historic "Olympian vs. Olympian" showdown.
But, that's not why you're here.
The best part of the press conference -- just like the pre-fight weigh ins -- happens to be the fighter staredowns, which fortunately, we have in earnest. Not only did "Rowdy" come nose-to-nose with her bantamweight rival, but fellow Olympian Daniel Cormier got to eyeball Patrick Cummins for the first time since Cry-Gate.
And he greeted him with a shove (.gif via ZombieProphet ... click here if it doesn't load below):
Bringing up the rear is the welterweight showdown pitting jiu-jitsu wunderkind Demian Maia opposite division top talent Rory MacDonald, with the winner staying relevant in the 170-pound title chase and the loser going home to figure out what went wrong.
Drum roll, please ...
