Daniel Cormier believes there may be some hypocrisy relating to criticism of one other UFC Corridor of Fame, Ilia Topria.
“Elmatador” is the governing UFC light-weight champion. He emerged as probably the greatest fighters on the UFC roster, knocking out Alexander Volkanovsky, Max Holloway and Charles Oliveira. Topuria has gained UFC Gold in two weight courses and is undefeated.
Lately, on the “Beelting You Me” podcast, Michael Bisping and Paul Felder criticized Topuria for dismissing a possible title protection towards Arman Tsarukyan. Bispin in contrast Topuria to John Jones when it comes to avoiding the subsequent high challenger. Cormier jumped on his YouTube channel to exclude Bisping’s feedback and reminded him to “rely” that he averted beneficial candidates when he held UFC Gold (through Mmajunkie).
“Michael, Paul, I perceive frustration,” Colmier stated on his YouTube channel. “However Mike, you had been on the championship facet. If you had been able to struggle Dan Henderson, you wished to do it with him, so that you fought him. The champion facet too.”
Many individuals check the grappling of “Elmatador” and contemplate the Emperor to be the hardest check ever in Toplia. The issue is that “Akhalkalakets” don’t precisely escape from the UFC kennel after being pulled out of the scheduled title struggle with Islamic Makhachev earlier this yr. Topuria might go away the door open to struggle different candidates, corresponding to a rematch with Justin Gaethje, Paddy Pimblett and even Holloway.
