UFC Announcing Gig Delays Daniel Cormier vs. Rumble Johnson 2
It looks like the reason Daniel Cormier is insisting on a December showdown at UFC 207 for his next title defense when his rumored opponent, Anthony “Rumble” Johnson is calling for a November showdown at UFC 205 is because of non-fighting commitments that D.C. has lined up.
Apparently Cormier has signed on to join Jon Anik in calling the UFC Fight Night 96 event in Portland, Oregon in October. The show is scheduled to feature John Dodson vs. John Lineker in a Bantamweight main event.
“I don’t control the fights,” D.C. told FOX Sports. “I show up when they tell me. I said, ‘OK, we can fight, but it’s not going to be November.’ I’ve got this play-by-play gig and other things to do before I start training. You can ask anybody — when I start training, there’s no more ‘UFC Tonight.’ I just start training. I want 10, 12 weeks to feel confident about a fight.”
UFC Fight Night 96 is scheduled to take place on October 1, 2016 in Portland, Oregon, and will air live on FOX Sports 1 (FS1).
