Why Daniel Cormier is the Worst UFC Commentator and Needs to be Fired

[@Ar1AnX1x]

I love how Cruz talking about DC not doing any research didn't result in DC improving at all lmao bro cares very little

[@viljamtheninja]

Really says a lot about him when he's called out for being lazy, basically admits it, and does nothing to improve. UFC nepotism, baby. I'm pretty sure there are hundreds of guys out there who would be WAY better commentators but I doubt they're gonna be hiring openly any time soon, if ever.

does anyone remember Cody stamman vs yadong song? that was so egregious by DC

[@2DRINKSMINIMUM]

To those knocking on Cruz for his Conor Khabib commentary, honestly I've watched Cruz's rationale for it, and I agree with what he was saying. What he meant was this: Conor in that moment, with one minute on the clock decided it was his best option to spend as little energy as possible and just try to survive the round, while Khabib expends his energy trying to knock him out. And i think it makes sense. It's hard to get across an idea as complex as this sometimes when you're trying to call things out live and fast. So personally, I don't knock Cruz for what he said.

[@ye5396]

Yeah and thanks to that connor won 3rd round cause khabib was gassed.

[@DomSte128]

I thought Cruz was being ironic at that moment.

[@Sevz101]

Cruz was right, Conor didn't know how to fight back so he was conserving energy while he was getting mauled. Round 3 Khabib said give me all the McChicken and I'll walk through it all without a cut or a bump. 😂 Big brothered him. Round 4 the cat ate the mouse.

[@AdobadoFantastico]

I think people like to interpret Cruz a bit unfairly. Iirc, Mendez gassed trying to ground and pound so I thought he was maybe thinking about that.

Joe corrected him immediately and about 10 seconds later Alex landed his switch calf kick to the lead leg.

No. Paulo costa got broken down from jabs and legs kicks. The entire fight was Adesanya just sliding away from his strikes until he was compromised where he landed the one shot that dropped him. Yes, if you gift him an easy counter like Whittaker did he'll take it, but he is absolutely not a tremendous counter striker that makes you pay for missing against him
