Daniel Cormier: ‘Something bad will happen’ if Jon Jones comes into cage at UFC 210

UFC light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier doesn’t want to see Jon Jones anywhere near the Octagon if he gets past Anthony Johnson this Saturday.

Cormier is currently scheduled to defend his 205-pound belt against Johnson in the main event of UFC 210 in Buffalo. The bout is a rematch, as Cormier previously defeated “Rumble” for the vacant light heavyweight title back at UFC 187 in 2015. The champion is confident he’ll defeat Johnson once again come Saturday night, even it means battling the dangerous striker on the feet.
