Ever since UFC light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier made UFC history by earning the heavyweight title back at UFC 226, the two-division champion has been receiving a series of call outs from fellow fighters. That being said, it would appear that D.C. has no plans to ever fight Alexander Gustafsson again.
Alexander Gustafsson has been quite vocal about his interest in facing Cormier once more. The two faced once in the past, with Cormier earning a split decision victory over his opponent.
Since then, Gustafsson has revealed that he is even willing to move up to heavyweight in order to face Cormier once again. Taking to Instagram, D.C. has come forward to reveal that he is no longer interested in facing “The Mauler.”
Check it out below:
“Dear Alex, I don’t know what happened to you going back to the Rockhold situation. You have always been a stand up guy but your behavior changed. From calling a guy out the day after he got knocked out, to now offering to fight me knowing I have a broken hand, after Volkan couldn’t go. Now you’ve turned down Jan, turned down Khalil all while calling for a heavyweight title fight. Now, moments after Anthony Smith does his work like an animal you decide you’re hurt.
“Man, I respect you as a fighter. I will always be grateful for October 2015, but you and I won’t share the octagon again. I am disappointed in who you’ve become. You are so entitled, man, I can’t deal with delusional people. Good luck recovering. Our time has passed. See you from the commentary table. DC @alexthemauler #wegoourseparateways”
