UFC Hall-of-Famer Daniel Cormier has faced criticism from fans for his 'Mount Rushmore of MMA' list, which does not include two of the sport's most significant figures: Jon Jones and Anderson Silva.Despite being considered by many as some of the greatest fighters in MMA history, Jones and Silva were not among the four fighters chosen by Cormier for his list of the most iconic fighters in the sport. This decision has caused a stir among fans and sparked debates on social media about who should and should not be included in the ultimate MMA lineup.Daniel Cormier recently appeared on the First Take show with Stephen A.Smith and listed his MMA greatest-of-all-time (GOAT) list which included:"Mount Rushmore of MMA fighters: 1.

Despite Jones' impressive performance in his first heavyweight bout, Daniel Cormier believes that the lack of worthy opponents could be contributing to the fighter's desire to move on from the sport:"He's still the best in the world. He was excited about the idea of going to fight at heavyweight. It was the challenge and something that scared him, but do you think that maybe it was easier than he may have thought? He got through Ciryl Gane so easy."The UFC commentator added:"Where's that challenge? Where's that thing that scares him? Because that's what Jones spoke about before the fight, being scared again, something that was dangerous. Maybe he doesn't feel that... I would like to see him continue to fight, I would like to see him fight guys like Sergei Pavlovich."Check out the entire episode of 'DC & RC' show below:
