DC Threatens to Walk off UFC Podcast after Host calls Jones ‘the Michael Jordan of MMA’

The hatchet bas been buried … right into the back of Jon Jones.

Former UFC two-division champion, Daniel Cormier, will never be friends with longtime rival Jon Jones. In addition, “DC” doesn’t want “Bones” to be compared to anyone other than Ted Bundy, simply because his Octagon legacy doesn’t stack up against all-time greats like basketball legend Michael Jordan.

From his conversation with Kamaru Usman on Pound 4 Pound:

Usman: “To be honest, Jon is — in a sense — the Michael Jordan that we’ve seen in MMA.”

Cormier: “No, he isn’t. I’m about to leave. You done with the interview? Do you just wanna be done?”

Usman: “DC, right now, really, you’re gonna tell me, going through everything that he has gone through, he’s not at that level? Obviously we’re not talking about the outside [issues]. But as far as in the sport, Jon is at that level.”

Cormier: “So you’re telling me that Jon Jones is the Michael Jordan and LeBron James of MMA? You’re gonna sit up here in real life in front of five cameras?”

Usman: “But let me finish what I’m saying! He’s not far from it.”

Cormier: “Michael Jordan got done playing basketball in 1996 and people still don’t want to say somebody’s better. There will be a person that comes along that people will say replaces Jon Jones as the greatest of all time. He has not left such a legacy that it feels like it’s never gonna be toppled. Jordan left a legacy that is so strong, that we have seen LeBron James do what he does, we have seen Kobe [Bryant] do what he does, we’ve seen these great players and [people are] still unwilling to say they’re better [than Jordan].”

Usman: “Okay, I agree with that.”
Cormier lost a five-round decision to Jones at UFC 182 back in early 2015, then got stopped by “Bones” in their UFC 214 rematch. The loss was later changed to a “No Contest” after Jones popped for steroids, one of many drug-testing snafus that cast a long shadow over his hall-of-fame career.

I wouldn’t call Jones the Michael Jordan of MMA either but lol at DC being so sensitive and triggered by someone else’s opinion like that.

the mere mention of JJ triggers DC, like the fat kid that got his lunch money stolen by the school jock.
He will never let that down.
That head kick was a work of art.

DC ain’t the Michael Jordan of wrestling

DC would have beaten Jones if he wasn’t juiced to the tits and on coke.

Good chance DC was juiced to the gills as well. He was pretty old fighting at a really high level. His whole gym is suspect especially the Dagestanis

And his levels were always unnaturally low when tested. Most likely from masking too well.
