While UFC 241 ultimately ended in disappointment for Daniel
Cormier after he lost the UFC Heavyweight Championship back to Stipe Miocic, fans
were left even more bummed out as Cormier admitted that it may be time to call
an end to his fighting days.
At 40 years old and with pretty much nothing left to prove
in UFC – well, unless Jon Jones can somehow sort his sh*t out – nobody can begrudge
Cormier retiring from MMA if he does indeed decide that that’s the right
decision.
Clearly emotional after the Miocic lost – only the second
official loss of DC’s career - it really did feel as if this could be it for
the career of Daniel Cormier.
Having won both the UFC Light Heavyweight Championship and
the UFC Heavyweight Championship, and with wins over the likes of Anderson
Silva, Alexander Gustafsson, Stipe Miocic, Dan Henderson, and Frank Mir to his
name, Cormier’s career is a Hall of Fame one, for sure.
