Teixeira, like many others, is adamant that Cormier would have won that night if he had made it to the Octagon. For that reason, a lot of fans believe that ‘Bones’ is returning to the title fray too quickly at UFC 214, after a lengthy spell on the sidelines.
“We’re going to have to wait to see what Jon is like when he comes back,” said Teixeira.
“If he fought Cormier the night he fought OSP he would have lost, but who knows? Maybe he saw what he looked like the night he fought OSP and didn’t like what he saw.
“Jon Jones is a true champion, I think he would learn a lot from that last fight and make changes ahead of his rematch with Cormier. If he fights like he did against OSP, it will be a bad night for him against Cormier.”

Can't say I disagree with him there.
This rematch will be very interesting, due to USADA breathing down Jones neck, and a super long lay-off.
