Daniel Cormier says he’s got ONE fight left in his MMA career — and it ain’t against Jon Jones — he wants a rematch with Stipe Miocic.
“Next one will be the last one,” Cormier said to Ariel Helwani … “It has to be Stipe. No one else matters.”
Of course, 40-year-old Cormier said he was pondering retirement after he lost to Miocic at UFC 241 in August … explaining that he needed to talk things over with his family.
But now, DC says it’s crystal clear … he wants the trilogy fight with Stipe to try and win back the UFC heavyweight title — and no matter what happens next, it’s over after that.
“I love to compete and I don’t want to finish like this.”
Cormier says there’s no fight date set in stone yet — but he was open to Dec. 14 at UFC 245.
Cormier says he’s not sure if Stipe has accepted the fight … but he’s laying all of his cards out on the table — saying he will NOT fight anyone else, including Jon Jones.
As for Stipe, Cormier says he thinks Miocic might be dealing with some issues of his own … but he wants to fight sooner rather than later.
We’re already out to Stipe for his response. Stay tuned …
