Speaking at a recent media day, Daniel Cormier revealed that he believes he has already cemented his legacy as a two-division champion of the UFC and that he has more money to make in television than in fighting.

“That’s the difference between me and a lot of other guys: If I was to get beat by Derrick Lewis and then I had nothing else, I’d still be OK. The reality is, what I’ve done is done. You can’t take it away. Just because I lose doesn’t change it.”

“And I have done what I have done, it will not change. On July 7, I cemented my place in MMA history. So if I lose, I lose. Hey, I’m going to make more money in TV than I’ve ever made fighting.”
