Fighter Futures: Dan Cormier

I cannot figure out why Dana White wants Daniel Cormier to drop to 205 when he enters the UFC, especially given the state of the heavyweight division. Dana says Cormier is “undersized” but at almost six foot tall and 240lbs he is not giving up much in the size department. The current HW roster lacks any true title contenders, outside of Velasquez, so I think it would be a foolish move to send the winner of the Heavyweight Grand Prix, arguably one of the best HWs in the world, down to LHW. While I don’t think Dan deserves an immediate title shot when his makes the move to the UFC, I think he should be only one fight away. As much as I want to see a Werdum/Mir match up, a think a Werdum/Cormier match with possible title implications will be the way to go.
