    Dc is crazy to be doing all that at 5,9 he’s like the mike Tyson of mma shorter then all the heavy weights but still dominates truly inspirational
  • @Kapitan07
    DC admitted he was 5'9. He said he was 5'11 in his tall shoes.
  • @noLuckyStrike09
    Why the hell would he film part of his gameplan in this demo before the fight.
  • DC's waistline measurement is more a problem than his height. He looks like he should be protecting quarterbacks.
  • @roshaii2629
    DC short but built like a Tank mesomorph body type I believe

    1:36 id like to see that.  i dont often see arm punches.
  • @PooFace2030
    Does dc really want to be on camera talking about this tho?
  • @mmaman6931
    Nice vid, dude. Gil seems bigger than DC lol.

    There's no way Cormier is 5'11, especially at weighing in at 205. He's way to thick to be 205 at that hight. Honestly I think he's a struggling 5'9. Phenominal fighter though!

    Very boxing oriented approach. Problem with that is that Jon has short range weapons too, I think that’s why dc lost. Plus dc shouldn’t have tried to strike with jones, partly feel like that was ego taking control of him there, he should have gone with a khabib like all wrestling approach since he is the better wrestler, and the shorter stockier fighter.
