In just a couple short weeks, UFC light-heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier will attempt to become only the second man in UFC history to hold two belts at the same exact time. (The first man to do so was Conor McGregor, FYI)
If Cormier beats Miocic in the UFC 226 main event, many think he’s deserving of being recognized as the greatest fighter of all time.
Still though, despite D.C.’s accomplishments, one man has beat him, not once but twice… And that man is Jon Jones.
Jones is the only man to ever defeat D.C., and a recent promo from the UFC on Jon’s rival sent him into a twitter frenzy, lashing out at the UFC in the process.
Here’s the exchange:
Does a win at #UFC226 earn @DC_MMA GOAT status?
