Daniel Cormier recently weighed in on Jon Jones' latest comments about him and clapped back at his claims about what would transpire if they had fought at heavyweight. The former two-division UFC champion didn't believe Jones and recalled his stance being much different when he was actively competing.
Jones and Cormier had a bitter and personal rivalry that saw them compete in two light heayvweight title fights inside the octagon as well as a brawl following a press conference. They never shied away from sharing their opinions of each other, but appeared to have been more cordial at UFC events in recent years.
Jones recently added more fuel to the fire as he claimed he would have defeated Cormier much easier at heavyweight compared to how he defeated him at 205 pounds.
