10 Dangers Daniel Cormier Poses To Jon Jones

4. The Ability To Be Relentless

http://youtu.be/sdhOJpES8Sg This may apply to being fearless, but there are clear differences. You can be fearless like Wanderlei Silva and look to brawl in every fight without hesitation. An adventurous game plan can also be considered as fearless. How this concept applies to Cormier is that he hasn't slowed down or try to be too different. When he walks into the octagon, his game plan will be instilled and he comes out victorious. His relentlessness comes from remaining in control. At one point in the third round, he chased Dan Henderson to where Henderson was trapped against the cage. After Cormier tossed him in the air, it wasn€™t enough for him. He landed a well-executed leg sweep to regain his position on top. He never gets frustrated, if he was unsuccessful on a few takedown attempts or not landing a combination. Barnett was a tall order for him, but he remained persistent. He didn€™t allow himself to get caught inside the clinch or in his signature leg lock. It was five rounds of using his speed and consistently pressuring him into being defensive, which no heavyweight is accustomed of doing.
