Daniel Cormier can sympathize with Stipe Miocic’s position. That doesn’t mean he’s going to just give him what he wants.
It’s no secret that Miocic wants another shot at Cormier after being KO’d by “DC” inside of a round at UFC 226. That loss snapped a stretch of back-to-back-to-back successful title defenses for Miocic, the best streak ever by a UFC heavyweight champion. He’s argued that warrants an immediate rematch, especially since he granted Cormier a title shot in the challenger’s first fight at heavyweight since 2013.
Cormier disagrees.
He recently mentioned on social media that he felt Miocic was acting “entitled” and elaborated on those thoughts during a recent appearance on The MMA Hour.
