Replacements aplenty for Cormier after cancellation
With news of Jones potentially failing a USADA test and the fight ultimately being cancelled, replacement fighters have been calling out on Twitter for a shot at Cormier.
2 months, 2 weeks, 2 days…… Hmmm middle vs light heavy???? I stand by my words. I’d do it!
