high level premium analysis:
Cormier used to be fast af and dominate his opponents by his ability to control distance through movement and his ability to transition between grappling and striking exchanges. He was so fast that his opponents would still be trying defend strikes while he is already taking them down and vice versa. Very reminiscent of prime fedor
However he is getting older and his last few fights he was very SLOW. He couldn't even close the range on rumble without getting blasted until rumble himself closed the distance for him. D.C. has been winning his fights by having incredible heart and grit. Grinding his opponents down and willing himself to victory
That is the WORST thing to bring into a fight with Jon jones. Jones will not close distance for Cormier like rumble did and grandpa Cormier will have a lot of trouble trying to close the gap before jones hits him with 82626167 chun li kicks
Even if Cormier DOES manage to tough it out and get into the clinch. Jones has better MMA wrestling (went like 5-0 with Cormier on takedowns in their last fight), is better in the clinch and has similar toughness/cardio/chin where he willed himself to win round 5 in every fight he's had, including against DC and Cormier
^how can you cage hug and "grind" someone who can fling you like that when you clinch them?
Conclusion: There is no way for comier to win outside of a punchers chance and he hasn't KO'd anyone in a long time+jones has an iron chin
ANOTHER EASY WIN FOR THE BONES BRIGADE
