As much as he might not like it, Daniel Cormier's fate seems forever linked with Jon Jones.

While Cormier was dealing with his own issues last week -- a leg injury which ultimately caused him to pull out of his UFC light heavyweight title defense against Jones -- Jones was going through his own issues.

Jones got into legal trouble, spending two days in jail after his latest run-in with Albuquerque authorities, which put his status against Cormier at UFC 197 into question.

It was yet another reminder for Cormier that he's forever linked with Jones, something DC compared to being on an amusement park ride you don't want to experience.

Fighting is so emotional because it's the greatest contest people can enter. No one gets knocked out and says "well ya but i could dunk over you" it is an inherently emotional and mentally traumatizing event. Which is why some opponents like to rile each other up so the other fighter comes out looking to destroy the other with one hay-maker as if to say "shut up pussy". They fight emotionally and not intelligently

It does not help that he allows Jon to make him so angry. If Cormier is smart (which he seems to be) he will learn to avoid that feeling completely and find nirvana before their next meeting.

Jon Jones doesnt get angry at all this banter, and that is his advantage.

A calm and focused Cormier is much more dangerous than a frustrated and tense Cormier.

Jon said it best and won the war of words in these interviews. He said that of course Daniel wants to help osp win so he then doesn't have to fight Jon. In another jab, he said Daniel will never beat him (which he can say) and that Daniel is a mental midget............not my words, but his......but he did have the chance to listen to Daniel first so has plenty of time to get all of this prepared.

He always reminds me of a little brother talking shit from behind his dad once he has stepped in to stop a fight. I realise and admire the fact that he's a stone cold killer, it's just something in the tone.
