Its like people forget that Jones beat DC twice. A motivated JJ off drugs beats DC at any weight. Once again if he is the better fight why relinquish your title?

Cheetoism is realThem racist muhhfucckas want jones head on a plate
Cormier will only gas himself tying to grapple with jones
If Cormier was capable of outwrestling Jon he would have done it in both of their 2 fights. DC has no answer for Jones frame, reach, and leverage and as a result he can barely get a half-assed takedown, let alone actually hold him down for any extended period of time. It has nothing to due with weight class, DC had maybe the biggest cut of any modern fighter trying to make 205 and outweighed Jon in the cage both times by a significant amount; 15 pounds if not more. Jon rehydrates and weighs in at no more than ~215-7 lbs; he is as natural light heavyweight as they come and still shut down Cormier's wrestling while taking and holding him down for an extended period of time. If he decided to bulk up to 240 to go fight DC at heavyweight the result would be even more lopsided in his favor.
DC's only hope of ever beating Bones is a flash KO and Jones is too good at controlling distance and has too good of a chin for that to ever happen. Let it go y'all

I agree, I kinda just want him to the Brock fight and just go away.
And I dont mean that in a bad way.... but just live his life

Damn, Cyborg. Nothing to say about that one. But I don't think she's going to retire like Rousey or Carano. I think she's going to work harder (especially on cleaner, crisper striking) and get her fight game back together. A rematch is inevitable here, and I think Cyborg will work for one. But I DON'T believe it should be automatic.
And I hope Nunes doesn't make the mistake Holly Holm did and jump right back into the ring. Let the other fighters duke it out amongst themselves - Cyborg included - and earn a shot at the belt.
She won't be touched for years and years. But I'm worried for her - she's fought four times this year alone, including earlier this month. She's 8-0, but six of her fights went to decision. This ain't the amateurs anymore. I'm afraid she'll burn out early if she keeps this pace up.

Jon turned 31 in July
He became champ at 23
He defeated legends in their prime, defeated men who were top contenders in different weight classes( Vitor), defeated them at their own games and beating DC who is the goat HW fighter defeating Bigfoot Silva,Josh Barnett,Frank Mir, and Stipe(who was the first to successfully defend the UFC HW title three times) DC also defeated Anderson Silva, Derrick Lewis,Anthony Johnson twice)
All MMA math leads to Jon being combat God
