Daniel Cormier can perhaps become the latest American kickboxing Academy veterinarian to make the full-time switch to coaching.
UFC Hall of Famer Daniel Cormier did not turn the course back on his decision to withdraw from Fighting in 2020 after a loss of trilogy to Miocic. Since he has hung up the gloves, Cormier has paid his full-time attention to analyzing some of the greatest battles of the UFC, alongside Joe Rogan and Play-by-Play Omroep Jon Anik.
Cormier entered the UFC Hall of Fame in 2022 next to his old friend and teammate Khabib Nurmagomedov. Nurmagomedov also retired in 2020 and made the full -time transition to coaching, despite hanging his gloves during the flourishing of his fighting career.
After coaching the most recent season of the Ultimate Fighter, Cormier can join Nurmagomedov to a similar company.

Daniel Cormier asks fans for ideas for team name after announcing relocation to coaching
Cormier and colleague UFC Hall of Famer Chael Sonnen Kwadraten as coaches on TUF 33, filmed in Las Vegas at the UFC Performance Institute and Apex. The season has yielded several remarkable moments and some of the best fights in the illustrious history of the show.
Cormier, one of the greatest UFC hunters of all time, is not ready to stop his current coaching performance because he recently teased on social media.
In a recent message about X, Cormier revealed that he dives in MMA coaching after his latest Tuf -Stint.
“Hey guys, I have a question. The ultimate hunter really fueled my coaching passion. I started a fighting team!” Cormier announced.
“In the team I want my name to be linked with it or do I want it to be something that is alone of me? Like my logos have not linked to the team?”
Several followers had some creative names for the Cormier Vecht team.
“I can't really go wrong with DC Fight Team,” replied a follower.
“AC/DC (all fighting Daniel Cormier),” said another.
“Daniel Cormier Team.”
“DC's FC (destruction team). Inenenkrimpen but fits especially if you are an UNC.”
“Kings of Cormier.”
At the moment, the exact details and vision for the Cormier team are uncertain, but it is expected that these will be announced in the coming months. Several Van Cormier's former AKA teammates, including Luke Rockhold and Nurmagomedov, were able to play roles at his staff.
Daniel Cormier shared a surprising prediction for the defeated Jones vs. Tom Aspinall Fight
Cormier's biggest rival, Jon Jones, recently announced his retirement from MMA. Jones was in long -term conversations with the UFC to negotiate a heavyweight title Unification Showdown with Tom Aspinall before he chose to hang the gloves.
But Jones has returned to the Octagon in recent days, especially after the UFC event of the US President Donald Trump next year in the White House in the White House. Jones came again in the UFC drug test pool and must be in it for at least six months before he is eligible to compete.
In the light of the now degraded Jones vs. Aspinall Showdown, Cormier believes that Jones would have won the fight if it flourished. But Cormier also said that the fight would have played differently, Aspinall had built up five rounds of experience in the cage.
Asinall is expected to return to the Octagon later this year to defend the undisputed heavyweight championship.
