UFC Kansas City saw a controversial moment on the main card of the event. UFC commentator Daniel Cormier was unfortunately on the receiving end of the wrath of the fans on Twitter.
Cormier took the mic away in the middle of the post-fight interview with Clay Guida. The fans showed their discontent at the action of Cormier and he may want to look away from some of these tweets.
A fan had some harsh words for Cormier.
Daniel Cormier is a toolshed. Guida sitting there after getting beaten to a pulp and just wants to mention his wife and kids and tell them happy birthday. But DC, like a jackass, pulls the mic away and ends the interview before Clay’s even close to done. Fuck that #UFCKansasCity

I honestly don’t understand @dc_mma cutting off @clayguida of his moment. The man deserves that opportunity to speak after giving 20+ years to this organization. @ufc makes enough money that they can hold off the stupid commercials 🤦♂️ #disrespectful #legend #HOF #clayguida

@dc_mma you rude cunt. You should have let @clayguida finish what he has to say. He has earned every right to take a couple minutes to say whatever he wants & thank all those who have supported him in his career. #UFCKansasCity
