Daniel Cormier explains why the deal between UFC and Jorge Masvidal happened
Daniel Cormier said that the two parties managed to come to an agreement because Masvidal was willing to fight. Daniel Cormier also added that it was going to take something out of the ordinary like this to bring the two close to a deal.
“When Burns fell out and Masvidal said he would absolutely fight [Usman], I was certain they would get a deal done,” Daniel Cormier told Ariel Helwani “Here was the thing that allowed Jorge to get what he was asking for. It was going to take something out of the ordinary for him to get what he wanted, because they had come to that point—both sides—where they were like ‘we’re not willing to do business."
Daniel Cormier continued and added that this moment became those extraordinary circumstances.
DC said that the UFC wanted to make the fight card at the Fight Island blow up and they knew a fight between Usman and Masvidal could achieve that.
“Here comes this extenuating circumstance, a big circumstance that allows [Masvidal] to come back to the table and say ‘hey, are you a little more willing now to give me what I want?'” Daniel Cormier continued. “The UFC’s like ‘you know what, man? This is Fight Island, this a big card, we need to blow this up. We need Usman here, and this is the guy [to fight him].'”
The fact that this fight is happening has definitely excited everyone from the MMA world.
