UFC light-heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier is always fighting off his haters.
For years the champ has been trying to figure out why his arch nemesis Jon Jones gets cheered for, while the champ himself is constantly heckled, booed and harassed.
Taking to “The Podcast of Awesomeness”, D.C. broke down a new theory he has on the subject.
Check it:
“People don’t want to be told, ‘I’m good so you should cheer for me’. Jon Jones is a guy that has made a lot of mistakes, so maybe people relate to him more. They go, ‘Forget this Daniel Cormier goody two-shoes, him and his kids and his family. I want the guy that does coke and parties and crashes cars. That’s the guy I want.’
“Maybe I’m not cool enough because I go to work, I fight, when I’m not fighting I go back and I go to my kids’ soccer and baseball games. That’s what I do. I go to wrestling. I’m not out partying. I’m not out doing all kinds of crazy stuff. Maybe I’m just too boring but I’m fine with it. I like my life.”
