As the adrenaline dump settled in, however, you could see the price both fighter paid to be called the best in the world at what they do. In the end, Cormier&#8217;s hand was raised in victory but he had nothing but nice things to say about his challenger.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEverything hurts. You have to be honest. You have to tell the truth: That guy beat me up tonight,\u201d Cormier said on his fight with Gustafsson. \u201cAlexander Gustafsson is an absolute stud,\u201d Cormier said. \u201cHe\u2019s one of the best fighters in the world. The sport needs guys like Alexander Gustafsson who can go out there and lay it all on the line against the best fighters in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jon &#8220;Bones&#8221; Jones just found out he would not be serving jail time for allegedly causing a three car accident then fleeing the scene earlier in April. &#8220;Bones&#8221; was the UFC Light Heavyweight Champion at the time of the incident, but was stripped of the championship after he turned himself in to the police twenty-four hours after fleeing the scene. Cormier won the championship in his absence and could be facing Jones next. Do you think that is the fight to make, or should Jones take a tune-up fight before he fights for gold?
