Daniel Cormier still bothered by Jon Jones’ failed drug tests: ‘I can’t let it go. He’s a cheater’

It’s been almost two years since Daniel Cormier walked away from fighting, yet there are still some things that don’t sit right with him.

The former UFC heavyweight and light heavyweight champion is not 100 percent at peace with his two losses to heated rival Jon Jones. Both Cormier and Jones fought in light heavyweight championship bouts in 2015 and 2017 – they were two of the biggest fights of their era.

Jones bested Cormier in both bouts, but he also failed drug tests in the years of their rivalry – once in 2016 for estrogen blockers clomiphene and letrozole and the other for the steroid turinabol in 2017 in Jones’ second win over Cormier, which was later overturned to a no contest due to the failed test.
