Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier wants fights that make sense for his weight class, because the only way to keep mixed martial arts (MMA) more sport than spectacle is by maintaining the integrity of each division.
Perhaps he missed some of this year's top headlines.
Conor McGregor was afforded a pair of fights at welterweight before making a single title defense at 145 pounds, while CM Punk wrangled himself a pay-per-view (PPV) fight without ever competing in combat sports. Oh, and some old dude who hasn't won back-to-back fights in five years just earned a middleweight title shot.
