Geo’s Weekly Round-Up:
By Geo Youngson
Cormier tells Gustafsson
Starting off Daniel Cormier again. This time he ripped into rival Alex Gustafsson for what he claimed was a bad attitude.
Daniel also stated that there would now be no rematch between them.
For all the things DC said, he has a point. So now of course the detractors are saying that DC is scared and ducking the hardest fight….. and DC has went from saying he only wants huge fights to being open to a fight with Corey Anderson, so maybe those critics have a point as well….
Anderson Silva fires back
Cormier again!!
Anderson Silva has responded to DC’s comments about Jon Jones and Anderson being excluded from the GOAT conversation due to failed drug tests.
“I respect Danny, but when he is talking about me and Jon Jones, he’s completely crazy because Jon Jones is the best fighter.”
He goes on to say that Cormier is lucky that Jones is out of the picture.
What do you think? Have Bones and the Spider ruled themselves out? Comment or let me know.
Conor is a free man
In a surprise to absolutely no one, Conor McGregor managed to plea deal his way to essentially a slap on the wrist for the bus incident.
I believe it is five hours of community service and three hours of anger management and he will also pay damages.
For those wondering what action the UFC would be taking, Dana has said that poor Conor has been punished enough so they are looking to get him a title shot as soon as possible.
