5. Cormier Has Been Training For the Fight of his Life

There is a reason Daniel Cormier was so distraught when it was announced that Jon Jones was off of UFC 200; Cormier had put everything he had into this fight camp, his fight with Jones was supposed to be the fight of his life.

Another loss to Jones would have left no doubt that Cormier was a level below him, and it would discredit the entire run as champion he had in Jones’ absence.  The difference between a win and a loss for Cormier would have been huge in terms of his legacy and standing in the sport, not to mention his drawing power in future fights.  There can be no doubt that Daniel Cormier has come into UFC 200 in the best shape of his life, but can Anderson Silva say the same?
