Late last month, in the main event of UFC 214, then UFC light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier stepped into the cage with his arch-enemy, former champ Jon Jones. Unfortunately for Cormier and his fans, Jones came out on top this night, sealing the dealing with a thudding shin to the head in the third-round<\/a>. Just like that, he’d reclaimed the light heavyweight throne, while Cormier’s title reign had screeched to a grim end.<\/p>\n

Unsurprisingly, the ever-passionate Daniel Cormier did not take this loss well. Immediately after the fight, during an ill-advised interview with Joe Rogan, he broke down in tears<\/a>, indicating clearly that he was both concussed and heartbroken.<\/p>\n

The next day, Cormier released a classy statement on social media<\/a>, which gave some cause for optimism about his mental state, though it remained clear that it’d take some time for him to swallow this loss.<\/p>\n

Since then, Cormier’s training partner Luke Rockhold has updated on the former champ’s status. Rockhold gave this update on the latest edition of the MMA Hour<\/a> (h\/t MMAFighting.com<\/a>).<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cHe\u2019s sulking a bit, but his spirits are coming back,\u201d Rockhold explained on the show. \u201cAnd I think he\u2019s got his family, he\u2019s got everything going for him, so he\u2019s got a bright future<\/a> with anything he wants to do. Cormier is a sharp guy with a lot of things going on, so we\u2019ll see. We\u2019ll see where it all falls.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI think, like anything, that was a big stage, that was a big moment, and it was a big fall,\u201d Rockhold continued. \u201cSo give him some time, the guy\u2019s got a big heart and he\u2019s got a lot of things going for him. So, time heals all.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

How do you think Daniel Cormier will recover from his UFC 214 loss to Jon Jones?<\/p>\n
