Say what you want about DC but he's not a duck.


People routinely say shit like GDR/Cyborg or Tito/Chuck are the biggest champion ducks in history when it's just hypotheticals that they might've been bad matchups so were being avoided (well Tito/Chuck was later proven true).Lol.
If you type it enough, you might get 10s of people to agree with you.
You fit in well here brother.
Imagine trying to convince a normal person that biggest duck in combat sports, only fought the guy twice.
Yes it's the most blatant duck in UFC champion history. By a lot.
He also wasn't offering to defend it instead against Gus who he'd arguably also lost to.He didn't want Jon Jones to get the title, and I don't blame him. Jones should have received a lifetime ban.
Sir he tried to fight Brock Lesnar over Jones and Stipe.Say what you want about DC but he's not a duck.

I think what happened was he'd decided he wasn't going back down to 205, but the UFC decided to do Gus vs Jones, and DC said fuck that Jones ain't getting the title back.He also wasn't offering to defend it instead against Gus who he'd arguably also lost to.
But that's probably just a coincidence eh
I know a lot of people split hairs about where "guilt" lies between a substance being in your system to needing to be found to have intentionally taken a substance, but to me, one of the most incriminating but least brought up points is the defrauding the USADA paperwork.He didn't want Jon Jones to get the title, and I don't blame him. Jones should have received a lifetime ban.
Yeah because it would have made him a ton of money for Brock to come back and challenge him for the belt. Not cause Brock was the easier fight and he was scared of Jon and Stipe. He fought Stipe 3 times and Jon twice for crying out loud..Sir he tried to fight Brock Lesnar over Jones and Stipe.
Explain how. He KO'ed Stipe in July. He called out Brock Lesnar in the post fight and had a show, sure, but then just 3 months later was announced to be fighting Derrick Lewis. Derrick was the #2 guy in the division behind the already beaten and still recovering Stipe, and who had just beaten the #5 Volkov in a title eliminator.
We all know Derrick was a weak contender, but people acting like he wasn't a deserved contender is just a move to spite Cormier. It's clearly horseshit and I can't think of any other reason people continue to peddle it.
Then just 6 months after beating Lewis, was booked for the Stipe rematch. In that small amount of time between the Lewis fight and the Stipe rematch announcement, there wasn't a peep out of Stipe, and DC had surgery on his back.
It's a huge, fan-invented, nothing burger
Are you sure there wasn't some misunderstanding here, because he said he hurt his back that morning. So it sounds more like he's saying the reason he didn't withdraw is because Lewis was such a weak wrestler. And it also feels irrelevant, because Lewis vs Volkov was only booked one month after Cormier won the title and it was a title eliminator. Stipe had just been KO'ed, what kind of window do you think he was supposed to come back for? If Cormier's back hurt and was going to get surgery anyway, then Stipe would have to wait anyway. Again, Stipe wasn't saying a word about his rematch.Except that DC himself acknowledged and stated in an interview that he took the Lewis fight because his back hurt and he figured he wouldn’t have to wrestle, as opposed to giving Stipe his rematch next. Then, he went and got back surgery. Stipe was left with his dick in his hand for over a year, and rightfully so was pissed about it. DC played the prize fighting game well. A Brock superfight or comparitively easy defense with Lewis are better options than Stipe. I’m fine with it, but let’s not pretend DC didn’t intentionally put Stipe in holding pattern after poking his eye balls out. The whole thing was dirty.
I don't think it's impressive either, but it wasn't bullshit that it happened.We all love Lewis, but HW was then, and still is shit. We would all joke about how funny it is that a limited fighter like Lewis is so highly ranked. Again, kudos to DC for playing the game, but his lone defense against Lewis is not and never will be impressive.
He knew he was at the end and chased the money, he didnt draw out fights in his prim like Jones did.
Also LOL @ Stipe deserving a rematch
Saw this on facebook. And its the truth. Put some respect on his name. One of the goats.

If you squinted a bit closer you would see that there’s a very big difference in DC’s risk tolerance when fighting FOR a belt vs DEFENDING a beltYeah because it would have made him a ton of money for Brock to come back and challenge him for the belt. Not cause Brock was the easier fight and he was scared of Jon and Stipe. He fought Stipe 3 times and Jon twice for crying out loud..

Nice underhanded slap to Jon's face. LolThat's because Cormier was a real champion
I'm so tired of his bullshit.Nice underhanded slap to Jon's face. Lol
Most feel that way, I'm just ready for him to go away.I'm so tired of his bullshit.
