Daniel Cormier och Alexander Gustafsson medverkade på UFCs Go Big-event. Cormier valde att dissa Gustafsson efter att han fått en fråga av en journalist.
Alexander Gustafsson kommer att möta Daniel Cormier på UFC 192, 3 oktober. De båda medverkade på UFCs Go Big-event. Gustafsson fick en fråga av en journalist om hur det känns att möta Cormier och få en andra chans på titeln. Han svarade på frågan med följande:
”Its a great fight and its a second opportunity for me. It means everything to me. I lost my last fight, I did a mistake and Im not doing it again. 3rd October I will be the champion.”
Direkt efter valde Cormier att ta mikrofonen och dissa Gustafsson:
”If I were Gustafsson honestly, I would probably be a little bit upset at you guys because you always talk about how close he fought Jon Jones. What about his earth-shattering win over Jimi Manuwa or his monumental win that was, do you know? I mean really you guys talk about a fight that he lost. He lost. Lets stop talking about the fight he lost and start talking about this guy has done positive and when you look at it that way you guys know exactly what going to happen on october 3rd. Hes going to lose to me. When you look at it objectively, not because he fought a guy closer than I fought him you realise whats going to happen on october 3rd. Out of respect for Alexander please talk about some of his earth-shattering wins that he has over the course of his career.”
Gustafsson valde att knappt bemöta dissen utan inflikade lite mumlande att han kommer vara den nya mästaren. Händelsen kan du se ungefär 52 minuter in i videoklippet från eventet som du kan se här
