Daniel Cormier and Jon Jones ruled the light heavyweight division for the better part of a decade. During their respective reigns as champions, both \u2018DC\u2019 and \u2018Bones\u2019 looked untouchable, clearly establishing themselves miles ahead of the competition.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, the rivalry between \u2018DC<\/a>\u2019 and \u2018Bones\u2019 is arguably one of the most, if not the most, intense rivalry the promotion has seen. The rivalry between the two crossed all possible lines, both physically and verbally as well.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In a recent interview, Daniel Cormier shared Dana White\u2019s heart-warming gesture towards him after losing to Jon Jones the first time out. He said, <\/span>\u201cBack in 2015, I fought Jon Jones for the first time,\u201d Cormier said. \u201cWe had this great build. And I was making $80,000 to show up and $80,000 to win,\u201d \u201cI lost. So I left that arena thinking, \u2018All that, and I made $80,000.\u2019 And I made like $80,000 in sponsorship back when we could wear those patches on our shorts. So I was like, \u2018Man, for all that, I\u2019m gonna make $150,000. It\u2019s crazy.\u201d<\/span><\/i>
