UFC fighter Daniel Cormier has given a little insight into his tactics ahead of his rematch against Stipe Miocic. Cormier revealed he’ll use a similar tactic Curtis Blaydes used against Alexander Volkov

Blaydes took the fight to the ground, with multiple takedowns during the fight. Although he was criticized for doing so, he dominated and ‘rag-dolled’ Volkov

Cormier is known for his exceptional wrestling coupled with clean kickboxing. During the rematch, Miocic dominated on the feet and used plenty of liver shots to slow down Cormier.

However, now that Cormier knows what to expect, taking the fight to the ground might be the smartest thing to do.

Daniel Cormier will take the fight to the ground against Miocic

“ I love fighting in the small cage at the APEX. That old leg is gonna be right in front of me to grab. I’ll be like Curtis Blaydes.

If you want to see a 25-minute stand-up fight, that’s not what you’re getting.

I hope Stipe has his wrestling shoes, because with the small cage, single-leg, single-leg, single-leg, single-leg, wrestling. It is what it is. Sorry”. Said Cormier on his show with Ariel Helwani.
