Daniel Cormier Says He Didn’t Go For The Armbar Because Of His Wrestling Instincts

Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand Prix champion Daniel Cormier stayed undefeated improving his record to 11-0 on Saturday night by picking up a second round TKO win over opponent Dion Staring. Cormier controlled the fight on the mat, and despite looking as if he could secure an armbar submission in the second, ‘DC’ says his wrestling instincts wouldn’t let him lose position despite the opportunity. Cormier will now go to the UFC and is looking for that bout with Frank Mir, hopefully on FOX television this April.
