Some of y'all are so creative I don't even know how they do that" While hilarious she didn’t say that at all.

When Daniel Cormier and Jon Jones went to war on Twitter

Another time Daniel Cormier's Twitter antics attracted mainstream news was in March 2021. However, there was nothing fake about his exchange with bitter rival Jon Jones. 'DC' took at dig at Jones after 'Bones' had made an 'edit' of Cormier on Twitter, which the former double-champion didn't take lightly.

And lastly , this fight didn’t count if you forgot there was an issue...... remember? hope you like this quick little edit I threw together for you hope you like this quick little edit I threw together for you There is a difference punch vs kick, you’re still as dumb as you’ve always been, you’ll never surprise me. Dance for me, I can always make you move. And lastly , this fight didn’t count if you forgot there was an issue...... remember? 'DC' called Jones dumb and also referenced the fighter's drug-related controversy after UFC 214. Despite beating Cormier via third-round stoppage, 'Bones' was stripped of the light heavyweight belt after testing positive for Turinabol following the event. The fight itself was overturned to a no-contest. The edited video Jones posted was of Cormier's emotional octagon interview with Joe Rogan after losing the title. As 'DC' was crying, Rogan stated that he doesn't agree with interviewing fighters after they've been knocked out, with the podcaster clearly seeing Cormier's discomfort. Watch the octagon interview below: Daniel Cormier fought Jon Jones twice, but never beat the 34-year-old. When facing 'Bones' at UFC 182, 'DC' lost via unanimous decision after five rounds of fighting. Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Thank You!
