Light heavyweight contender Alexander Gustafsson isn’t too happy about t🧜he upcoming super fight, which led to a Twitter e♌xchange between Gustafsson and DC, starting with Gustafsson taking a shot at the champion:
Dc u talk about the blachowicz fight?! What♓ about when “someone” predicted the 𝔉left kick and still u fell for it..
— Alexander Gustafsson (@AlexTheMauler)
That would lead to a response from DC:
Damn alex, like that? Too late bud, this the shit you should have been saying before the fight was made. Now chill before I beat ur face in again pre𒁏tty boy!
— Daniel Cormier (@dc_mma)
It would come to an end when Gustafsson predicted he would be DC’s opponent in the champ’s re🦩tirement bout:
U r the one talking fights here! I’m gonna be ur retirement fig🔯ht not Stipe I’ll wa♛it.. can’t wait to take u down again.. and again..
