DAMN! They Were Good is a celebration of some of the greatest and most influential fighters in MMA history. This episode focuses on Daniel Cormier, UFC Hall of Famer, two-time Olympian and UFC Hall of Famer.

Cormier entered MMA after a distinguished freestyle wrestling career and had almost immediate success, winning the Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand Prix in just his third year of fighting. Cormier then transitioned to the UFC and dropped down to 205 pounds, where his real Hall of Fame run began, eventually winning the light heavyweight title, before returning to heavyweight to win his second UFC belt, becoming only the second person ever two hold two titles simultaneously in the UFC. Jon Jones was also a rival throughout it all.

Shaheen Al Shaatti, Damon Martin and Host Jed Meshew join forces to recall Cormier’s career and discuss where he ranks on the all time greats list.
