✍️ Autograph Authentication Crown Verified
The autograph on this 2020 Topps UFC Knockout Inception Blue parallel (1/25) is executed in blue ink across the lower portion of the card face, consistent with Daniel Cormier's documented signature style: a broad, looping initial "D" flowing into an expressive, multi-stroke "C" with characteristic sweeping underscore. Crown Authentication's ink examination confirms this is a live ink autograph, with darkened overlaps at stroke intersections and visible variation in ink pressure and density throughout the signature. No printed or facsimile reproduction characteristics were identified. Based on these physical ink findings and favorable comparison to known exemplars, Crown Grading's authentication team is satisfied that this autograph is genuine.
Card Notes
Topps UFC Knockout Inception brought premium autograph collecting to mixed martial arts during the sport's continued mainstream expansion. Released in 2020, the set emphasized artistic design and scarcity, with color variants limiting print runs to create distinctly collectible versions. Inception became known among UFC collectors for elevating the visual presentation of fighter cards while maintaining the autograph focus that drives the hobby. This blue parallel of Daniel Cormier captures one of the sport's most dominant light heavyweight champions during his career peak. Cormier's signature and the limited printing to just 25 copies make this a significant pull for collectors focused on building sets or pursuing key fighter autographs from this era of premium UFC releases.
