Daniel Cormier dispels the notion that Khabib is surrounded by his Yes Men

The entire world is waiting for one of the biggest UFC events of the year UFC 254, Khabib vs Gaethje. Everyone has chosen their side; the entire world is divided into two teams, i.e. Team Khabib and Team Gaethje. Even the UFC fraternity has picked their sides, the former two-division UFC champ Daniel Cormier dispels the notion which Gaetjhe blames on Khabib that he’s followed by his yes man and none of them try to beat him up.

In the latest episode of DC and Helwani, DC dispels the notion that Khabib is surrounded by all of his friends and he is protected by them in practice. He says, “Justin said I go into my gym and get beat up every day. I feel Khabib is surrounded by all of his friends they all are telling him that he is the best in the world but they don’t try to beat him every day”.

Cormier added, “ I don’t allow anybody to comment on this about someone who is best in the world. He says from his own experience he’s telling that ‘We try to beat him up, guys try to beat him up when he’s in practice’ but Gaethje saw something in him that gives him this confidence and if Gaetjhe can use it, he can rise up to the occasion”.

Cormier believes Gaethje has the best coach in his corner

While further talking with Ariel Helwani, Cormier said that he believes in the form of Trevor Wittman, Gaethje is having the best coach in his corner. He says, “ We have created a position for Trevor Wittman, he sits next to the Octagon and every night he can give details for his corner and the way to fight”.

The world is going to witness this super fight in few days and we’ll be witnessing that Khabib makes his streak to 29-0 or Gaethje emerge as the new champion and starts his reign and the lightweight division.
