“I will let him do his thing. I am not gonna comment on it.”

If not inside the cage, the ‘DC Saga’ will continue outside it. Two-division UFC champion Cormier is a stellar member of the commentary panel and has mired himself in several other ventures.

He is also adjoined with the EA Sports for the latest UFC 4 video game. Thus, the Heavyweight great would continue to appear for the fans. Just not in the UFC.
