I searched and got nothing so here you go - LINK

quote:

"I know a situation that helps out everyone," the Strikeforce champ said in an interview with Bloody Elbow. "Give Jon a challenge that he doesn't get from most guys, and that's something that I present. Hopefully, him and I get through our next fight. At the beginning of the year, let us coach the next season of The Ultimate Fighter. That gives me time to actually get my weight down, and in the summer time, we fight. How does that sound?

Cormier needs to move to 205. I don't know that he's done enough to deserve an immediate title shot at 205 though. Anderson Silva moved up a couple times and never fought for the title.

Lolwut. He is a fat frick at 240. How about transforming your body first before calling out the G.O.A.T at 205.

He's fighting Vitor Belfort right now. The challengers are nonexistent.

He wrestled at 96 kg which is about 211 lbs. He could do it

Cormier should worry about fighting Mir instead of worrying about fighting Jon Jones. The heavyweight division is low on heavyweight challengers so I know the UFC wants him to stay at heavy

It doesn't seem too likely, but would probably sell.

I'm sorry, but after watching Mir's training footage with his kids all hanging around all day and him look completely old and inept against JDS, I can't see him winning another fight against a quality opponent. I think Roy would merk him if they fought again.

So I'm not the only one who noticed that?

How much can you really push yourself by training alone with your wife and kids there? Same shite Tito was doing.

Matt Hughes too. These guys fight for a while and start to make enough money to tailor their training to what's convenient for them and never get better.

That's not how it works of you want to keep winning.
