THE HERD – HOUR 2 – Blazing 5: Rams vs Broncos, Eagles vs Bears | USC NEEDS A Big Win

Daniel Cormier IS BACK to talk all things UFC, MMA, and combat sports, this time DOUBLING DOWN on his criticism of Gable Steveson after leaving the octagon following his UFC 331 KNOCKOUT LOSS to Sean Sharaf. DC says he spoke to Gable Sunday about the loss, and expects him to bounce back better than ever, despite feeling like he needed to stay in there and accept the loss. Cormier also gives Jon Jones his flowers as a coach, saying he was wrong to assume that Jones wasn't good for the role, and he believes that taking the blame for Gable leaving further proves his potential as a coach. DC also gives his quick take on the massive heavyweight title fight between Ciryl Gane and Josh Hokit for the interim belt, which he predicted would happen last week. Hear what Cormier believes is next for Gable, why he will only continue to get better, and where he believes Jon has been a great coach for the young prospect. #Volume 18+ Only.
