UFC light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier has taken to social media to snap back with a heated response to a critical fight fan. Now the incident is making its way around the internet.
Daniel Cormier is moving up in weight to challenge UFC heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic for his title. The two mixed martial arts warriors are set to throw down for their super fight at UFC 226.
The highly anticipated fight card will take place July 7 inside the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nev. The main card will air live on pay-per-view.
With that in mind, Cormier has voiced his opinion on retirement multiple times. The title holder is not interested in competing in his 40’s, which are fast approaching for the 39-year-old fighter.
Firing back at a critical fight fan over the matter, Cormier had the following to say:
“You my friend are an absolute idiot. I’m running but I’m still here. I’m retiring because I am still healthy. Have a job. I’ve got ton of money. And guess what idiot. I’m almost 40!!!!!! That’s smart something you know nothing about”
