Daniel Cormier and Sergio Mora get heated over Canelo-Jacobs commentary

By Tom Taylor - May 6, 2019

Like many combat sports fans, Daniel Cormier was tuned into the headline dominating boxing match between Canelo Alvarez and Daniel Jacobs on Saturday night. Yet while he enjoyed the action, he did not enjoy the ring-side commentary from former WBC champ Sergio Mora and Brian Kenny.

“Brian Kenny and Sergio Mora really suck! Canelo won but Danny fought a good fight man wtf they ruined the fight,” Cormier wrote on Twitter.

It didn’t take long for Mora to respond to this comment from Daniel Cormier. Unsurprisingly, he didn’t take it well.

“Sorry you thought I sucked champ,” Mora wrote in his reply to Cormier. “I think your striking sucks. Let me work with you so @JonnyBones doesn’t kick your ass for a third straight time.”

Daniel Cormier then fired back, roasting Mora for his comparative lack of Twitter followers.

“Pretty good Serg so let me retweet so that people actually see it,” Cormier wrote. “You have 10k followers. We can’t waste good material can we? You sure didn’t have any last night during the fight.”

Who do you think came out on top in this Twitter skirmish between Sergio Mora and Daniel Cormier? Which man do you think is better at fight commentary? Join the conversation in the comments section down below.

Josh Evanoff - November 4, 2024

It appears that Islam Makhachev vs. Arman Tsarukyan 2 is official for UFC 311 in January. The lightweight champion hasn’t been seen in the cage since a clash with Dustin Poirier in June. In the main event of UFC 302, Islam Makhachev entered the octagon as a massive betting favorite against ‘The Diamond’. While the challenger offered some resistance, the Russian emerged with a fifth-round submission victory.

Josh Evanoff - November 4, 2024

It appears that Dustin Poirier wants to face Max Holloway in his final UFC fight. ‘The Diamond’ has been out of the cage since a third crack at lightweight gold at UFC 302 in June. In the main event of that card, Dustin Poirier faced Islam Makhachev. Despite entering the cage a massive underdog, the longtime contender gave the champion all he could handle. However, Makhachev still scored a fifth-round submission to retain his title.

UFC welterweight contender Shavkat Rakhmonov has no issue fighting Ian Garry if he needs to. ‘Nomad’ is in a bit of a weird spot at the moment. Shavkat Rakhmonov last appeared in the cage last December, submitting longtime contender Stephen Thompson on the UFC 296 main card. Following that victory, he was booked to face Belal Muhammad in his first shot at welterweight gold. However, that fight’s no longer happening.

Javier Mendez says Khamzat Chimaev is on same level of Khabib Nurmagomedov & Islam Makhachev despite style differences

Fernando Quiles - November 4, 2024

Renowned American Kickboxing Academy head coach Javier Mendez has some big praise for Khamzat Chimaev. While Chimaev dazzled MMA fans with his red hot UFC start, illnesses halted his momentum. Perhaps mother nature can only hope to contain “Borz,” as he bounced back to deliver the most impressive performance of his fighting career. He injured Robert Whittaker’s bottom teeth to the point where “The Reaper” was forced to tap out as soon as a face crank was applied.

Sean O’Malley’s coach Tim Welch has cleared the air on a recent social media post that was met with backlash. Welch was paying attention to the UFC 308 pay-per-view event. In particular, he was in awe of Khamzat Chimaev’s ability to force a submission on Robert Whittaker as quickly as he did. After the fight, Welch suggested that Bo Nickal might be the only fighter to give “Borz” a run for his money.

Don't expect Daniel Cormier & Jon Jones to have Tyson-Holyfield moment due to past rivalry

Fernando Quiles - November 4, 2024

Daniel Cormier doesn’t believe he has to be chummy with Jon Jones despite their rivalry being long gone. Cormier and Jones had a nasty feud under the UFC banner. The two brawled during a UFC 178 media day sessions. Jones defeated Cormier via unanimous decision in their first meeting. Their second clash initially ended in a knockout win for Jones, but that result was changed to a No Contest due to a failed drug test on Jones’ end. “Bones” has long maintained his innocence when it comes to using banned substances.
