As a 20-1 Favorite Cormier Unhappy With Disrespectful Odds | MMA NEWS


“It’s very unfair. It’s unfair to him and it’s disrespectful to Dion because of all that he’s done in his career. And it’s a little, it’s kind of unfair, there’s a lot of pressure that comes with that. Because I can go on not even thinking about it, but at some point someone’s going to bring it to my attention and it’s somewhat unfair both ways. But I think more than anything it’s disrespectful to him and everything he’s achieved in his career so far.”

The Strikeforce Heavyweight GP champion, Daniel Cormier, tells MMA Fight Corner that he is disgusted with how odds-makers have pegged his opponent as a historical underdog.

  1. Anderson Silva says:

    I’ve never seen odds like that in my favor!

  2. B-rad says:

    Yeah yeah he says all that but i bet when he first saw the betting odds, he got a good laugh.

  3. Curthis says:

    Class act. Wish more people in sports were like this.

  4. Mike Tyson says:

    Child, please.

  5. Sonnen's Mother says:

    Cormier and his boys had their own betting odds on how big the spread would be. Daniel, himself, had 30-1 odds the line would be anything closer than 15-1.

    It’s like Looper taking place in the Matrix. Figure it out.

  6. hmmm says:

    kinda ironic that this article just mentions him as ‘opponent’

  7. KOSHCHEKS BLEACHED TAINT says:

    What’s disrespectful is that you don’t even mention his “opponents” full name once in the article.
