UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Daniel Cormier truly believes Jon Jones has used performance-enhancing drugs in the past.
Cormier recently did an interview with MMA Fighting and was asked if he believes Jones used PEDs during their first encounter back in 2015.
“I do, 100 percent,” Cormier said. “Physically, there were some differences, but also, logically, there were differences. Medically, there were differences. There were a lot of reasons as to why it’d point to him doing stuff like that.
“If he’s gonna do things to sabotage himself, why wouldn’t he do things to enhance himself? He tested positive for those two (substances), his brother tested positive for the same two things, the same exact time. There are just so many reasons to believe that he had been cheating.”
In 2015, Jones won a decision against Cormier to defend his title.
Since then, Jones has been stripped of his championship. He has also been suspended for the past year due to testing positive for banned substances.
Cormier will defend his title against Jones on Saturday in the main event of UFC 214.
