UFC 192: Daniel Cormier says he has mental edge over Alexander Gustafsson after 'Mauler's' knockout loss

Mixed martial arts (MMA) -- or any other combat sport, for that matter -- is as much mental as it is physical.

And Daniel Cormier seems to think he has a distinct mental advantage over Alexander Gustafsson, the man he'll defend his Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Light Heavyweight title against at UFC 192 on Oct. 3, 2015 in Houston, Texas.

Especially after hearing that "The Mauler" revealed he almost called it quits after getting brutally knocked out by Anthony Johnson in his last outing.
