It&#8217;s an intriguing matchup and one many are torn on who will win, but Cormier has an idea of who wins based on his previous experiences with both men.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Both are extremely tough, they are both tremendous mixed martial artists. Here&#8217;s the thing, I will say this as truthfully as I possibly can. When I lost to Jon Jones I did everything in the rematch and in the first fight and I lost,&#8221; Cormier said to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=gT-tHCHrihg&amp;ab_channel=TheMacLife\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TheMacLife<\/a>. &#8220;I did everything possible in that rematch to win and the dude still got me. If we didn&#8217;t have all the shit tied to the match, he could&#8217;ve walked away with probably the greatest victory of his career because I gave my absolute best in training, in preparation, I was as sure as about myself going into that fight as I\u2019ve ever been.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_378582\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-378582\" style=\"width: 696px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-378582 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/wp-content\/uploads\/Daniel-Cormier-16.png\" alt=\"Daniel Cormier, UFC, Commentary\" width=\"696\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/wp-content\/uploads\/Daniel-Cormier-16.png 696w, https:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/wp-content\/uploads\/Daniel-Cormier-16-300x172.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-378582\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Daniel Cormier<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&#8220;Stipe Miocic, very very good. But I couldn\u2019t do all the things that I did for those Jones fights. I feel like if I fought Stipe Miocic as prepared as I was in the second fight with Jones, I never would lose to him. I don\u2019t feel that way with Jones,&#8221; Cormier continued. &#8220;I still believe I would win fights, but I do believe that he could win fights. I do feel like if I was prepared to the best of my ability, I would never lose to Stipe and I really respect Stipe. I just think that the matchup is not good for him. Great fight. I\u2019m excited about it but when I look at these two, I don\u2019t know if Miocic gets past Jones. I don\u2019t like Jones, but he can fight.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Many might be surprised to see Daniel Cormier pick Jon Jones given how much he dislikes him, but the champ-champ appears to at least respect his skillset.
