Glover Teixeira Gives His Pick For Jones vs. Cormier

Glover Teixeira will have his eye on January’s UFC 182 main event bout between Jon Jones and Daniel Cormier. Glover is coming off a brutal 5-round beating at the hands of Jones, and is looking to get back in the win column with a win over Phil Davis at UFC 179.

Glover spoke to media members in Rio De Janeiro about who he believes will take the belt home come January 2nd.

“Everyone has a chance, Cormier is a great fighter. He has a chance, but I think it’s tough. Jon Jones has more qualities.”

“I hope (he stays champion). It would be nice to fight for the title and have my rematch at the same time. For me, it would be taste better. But if (Jones) loses, I don’t even want to look at his face [laughs]. I just want the title.”
