Twitter Reacts To Daniel Cormier vs. Alexander Gustafsson
UFC light-heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier retained his belt in Houston, Texas, with a very close but ultimately riveting five round brawl against Alexander Gustafsson. In typical Cormier fashion, he once again proved why he is king of the grind, but Gus came so close.
‘The Mauler’ just couldn’t get there in the end, and loses his second shot at title glory, but retains a great amount of pride in his performance.
Twitter has exploded since the fight, here are some of the best reactions to Daniel Cormier vs. Alexander Gustafsson:
DC won that imo. he was more active. Gus is going to kick himself when he sees how close he was to winning this if he was more busy #UFC192

Two of the three judges gave DC that third round, despite Gus’ huge knee. I did too, but it could have gone to either guy
