Cody Garbrandt

Cody Garbrandt is not here for athletes from other combat sports dissing MMA fighters. This week, he took to Twitter to give boxers Jake Paul and J’Leon Love a piece of his mind.

Jake Paul has not bitten his tongue at all on what he thinks of MMA and MMA fighters following his TKO of former UFC fighter, Ben Askren. The boxer has called out Justin Poirier and Nate Diaz. But his comments regarding Daniel Cormier were a step too far for Garbrandt. It started with a heated exchange between Tyron Woodley and J’Leon Love right before the Paul-Askren fight. Cormier commented on the disrespect shown to former champ Woodley, and the war of words began.

For his part, Cody Garbrandt has had enough and wasted no time jumping into the Twitter beef.

He also took time to respond to Love’s assertion that MMA fighters are weak.

Clearly, Paul and Love’s comments struck a nerve with the former bantamweight champ. In other posts, Garbrandt has invited both Paul and Love to step into the octagon. A move that neither boxer seems to be interested in at this time. Instead, both continue to stress that boxing is the sport that has large paydays, not MMA. It will be interesting to see how far the beef goes, as Garbrandt currently prepares for his upcoming matchup with Rob Font in May.

Do you think that Cody Garbrandt will face off with Jake Paul or J’Leon Love in the ring?

Daniel Cormier

Daniel Cormier isn’t interested in ending his retirement to box Jake Paul.

The former dual-weight UFC champion is the latest MMA fighter to be targeted by Paul, who is flying high after beating Ben Askren inside one round this past weekend. The 24-year-old landed a big right hand early to drop Askren. ‘Funky’ rose to his feet quickly but was not allowed to continue by the referee who waved off the boxing bout.

‘DC’ took issue with the way the YouTuber’s team had spoken to Tyron Woodley backstage at Trillers latest pay-per-view event. The UFC commentator took to social media to voice his displeasure, something which prompted a call out from Paul.

Cormier addressed the call out on a recent episode of ‘DC & Helwani’.

“This dude would never fight me. I would kill him,” Cormier said. “Why would I ever fight someone like that?” But my immediate reaction was, ‘I can’t stand this kid.’ So it works! I can’t stand this kid! But who punches down? You don’t punch down to somebody. I’m the guy that’s in the Hall of Fame. I’m the guy that won two world championships at the same time.

“I’m not gonna punch down to some kid that’s on YouTube that’s, like, ‘Fight me!’ Like, why? What have you done to earn the right to fight me? So, no, it’s silly and stupid. But I would like him to fight Tyron. I would like to see him fight somebody more real. Don’t fight Ben Askren at 190, bloated.

“Fight a middleweight (185 lbs in MMA). Fight Luke Rockhold! Let me see you fight Luke Rockhold or somebody like that,” Cormier added. “And then I will not only say that you have base skills, I will say you’re a real fighter. Because right now it’s all pretend. It’s all pretend.” (Transcribed by BadLeftHook)
