Media Cormier admit he would have lost to Gane

[HHJ]

Honestly I think thats how DC feels about Fedor,and has nothing to do w him working for the UFC. He was in Strikeforce the same time as him,and saw Fedor when he didnt have it anymore. He might be wrong but I see his perspective.

As far as Gane,I think he is just saying that to hype the fight. DC can arguably beat any HW that's ever existed.

 

[SalvadorAllende]

Strikeforce DC would have wresslefucked both Gane and Ngannou.

I would pick Strikeforce DC over any heavyweight ever.

 

[XociDe]

If Gane got ragdolled simply by strength and size, then there is no way he'd be stopping a wrestler the caliber of DC.

I am very confused is that supposed to be a complement or insult to Gane? Gane is supposed to be the fast, athletic HW, but his chances don't sound good against Jones if Gane doesn't have the speed, skill, athleticism, intelligence, technique to avoid literally just getting grabbed and thrown to the ground by the one punch bomber, Ngannou. What is Gane going to do against Jones' masterful speed, skill, intelligence, technique?

I couldn't be bothered to reply to this at the time but watching the interview reminded me. So there you go. (timestamped)

Let's all be honest here....
DC's comments at this point have as much credibility as Chael's....

He is a schill to the almighty dollar at this point.... End of story.

Both of them will say whatever it takes to get paid. The non-MMA equivalent of Steven A Smith.

Everyone on this planet knows that a prime DC absolutely ragdolls any version of Gane.

 

[Paul E Gensinger]

DC would have ragdolled Gane

And Lesnar would have ragdolled DC.

Over prime Fedor?
Pre-diverticulitis (and juiced to the gills) Brock?
Sea level, with still functioning knees, Cain?

Let's not carried away. DC was an absolute beast... You know you wouldn't stake your life on him beating the afore mentioned three.

(Disclaimer.... He could possibly do it)

 

[Miiiiiiighty]

N'Gannou exposed Gane big time imo.

Jones is gonna drag him to the mat asap and molest him there, and stop him.

 

[Here's Johnny!]

And Lesnar would have ragdolled DC.

huh? didn't we already see Lesnar vs Cain where lesnar couldn't get Cain down and keep him there? DC was Cains wrestling coach... so now you are saying Brock would outstrike DC? alright.

Fedor and Cain are big question marks, but Brock ?

You've got to be joking my man... Strikeforce DC would absolutely obliterate him and it would be ugly.
Your pre diverticulus Brock struggled with a 47 years old man that was 60lbs lighter and has zero punching power... even in the wrestling department Lesnar was struggling when Couture still had gas...
DC would have embarrassed him.

And Lesnar would have ragdolled DC.

So your entire premise is based upon a fight where Couture got absolutely obliterated? He never sniffed winning that fight.

I get it.... It's cool and edgy (still?) to hate on Brock.

Matchups play a part.... Wether it is Randy or Daniel.... Brock can compete on the wrestling/grappling front. Granted, that has a lot to do with his insane (juiced) physical attributes....

In a hypothetical match-up..... You're not betting your life on either of them.

Let's not be naive though.... No one in the sport is clean.

 

[markys00]

No. No it doesn't. We all know DC says whatever for the UFC.

 

[Paul E Gensinger]

Why laughing?
Physically? Brock would have handled in wrestling. The size difference? A 300lb muscle machine vs a little chubby man?
Now, could DC have knocked him out standing? Possibly. Remember Brock shoving DC, sending him flying across the cage? Monster vs midget.

Did you ever watch healthy Brock fight?

Yes.

Specially over Cain.. I think Cain was super overrated.

Prime Bork still had no striking and Fedor would be the most interesting one but I still think DC could lay on him if he wants to.

 

[SalvadorAllende]

[Paul E Gensinger]

Healthy but green.
Man, knew you'd do that to me.

 

[IneedSometop]

I bet if asked that question without a camera on him you’d get an entirely different answer

Yeah bud I was a fan since way before Brock unlike some…

DC was an Olympic level wrestler he used to throw around much bigger men like they were nothing. He would definitely at least nullify Lesnar’s td attempts and then more than likely control him against the cage in the clinch using chain wrestling and superior technique

 

[Yellowcrab]

The same guy who got outwrestled by a one legged Ngannou is probably not beating Cormier. DC being a company man, per usual.

Didn't that same Ngannou destroy Miocic and Blaydes ?

Where was their super wrestling against Ngannou ?

 

[xhaydenx]

Strikeforce DC would have wresslefucked both Gane and Ngannou.

Probably at the same time even.

Seriously, DC was leagues better than both Gane and Frank in every area.
