Former two-division champion and UFC Hall of Famer Daniel Cormier reacted to the decision to organize a fight for the interim title in the heavy division between Sergei Pavlovich And Tom Aspinall, which will take place on November 11 at the UFC 295 tournament in New York.
“We probably fell in love with the idea of Miocic and Jones because of their status, but this fight is clearly overrated. The fight between Pavlovich and Aspinall could be better, these are two of the strongest heavyweights on the planet.
We don't know what shape Miocic is in, he's 41 years old, and we haven't seen him in action since he was 39. I'm not saying he's not the same anymore. But we have two young and hungry lions fighting for the title. Would a Jones vs. Miocic fight shock you today or in 2015-2016? I have no doubt that the new main event will be amazing,” Cormier said on ESPN.
