Jones: I never hated Cormier

Former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion John Jones spoke about his attitude towards his former rival, the former holder of titles in two promotion divisions Daniel Cormier.

“I never felt hatred for Cormier. I just really wanted to win against him. And after the fight, you can't help but respect the person, that's how it's already arranged.

I have respect for every fighter with whom I crossed paths in the cage. When the battle ends, the conflicts go away. I forgive Daniel for all the negative statements addressed to me. And I hope that he will forgive me too, ”Sportkeeda quotes Jones.

Recall that on the night of March 5 at UFC 285 in Las Vegas, USA, Jones will fight Cyril Gan. The vacant heavyweight title will be at stake.
