Fans call for Daniel Cormier to be axed after UFC 333 KO

A massive knee from Abdul Rakhman Yakhyaev clearly forced a stoppage of Nikita Krylov halfway through the first round of an exciting light-heavyweight prelim. However, Daniel Cormier seemed to think that the Russian had hopped back to his feet quickly.

“He went down limp,” Cormier noted. “But it seemed like he bounced up decently quick.” He then questioned the stoppage, which irked fans.

“What fight was Cormier watching?” One viewer asked. “Bro was out cold getting smoked in the face while laying face down a– up on the canvas.” Another asked “Can we please get Daniel Cormier off the UFC commentary team Always so biased and incredibly wrong about everything.”
