His plan eventually is to emulate the likes of Conor McGregor and Daniel Cormier, among others, and add his name to a list of simultaneous two-division champions in the UFC. However, to reach that level he has to get through Kamaru Usman first and then Israel Adesanya.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2018The Last Style Bender\u2019 has been receiving a lot of criticism for his recent performance against Jared Cannonier.

He said, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;He&#8217;s doing his job, you know. He makes his money. Now he&#8217;s the champ. He don&#8217;t need to do the like, crazy things just to win. I don&#8217;t know what&#8217;s happening with him last time.

He&#8217;s driving like crazy cars&#8230;Some people, they change, you know. When you&#8217;re hungry, you fight crazy. And, like he did before.
