Does Daniel Cormier deserve the next UFC Heavyweight Title shot?

I think he is the most deserving challenger to the JDS-Mir winner. Cain just lost easily to JDS and should get a few more wins. Werdum recently lost to Overeem and has already lost to JDS so he needs another 2 wins.

Thoughts?

Yes, but he isn't going to get one.

It should go

1. Mir (situation gave him the opportunity)
2. Comier
3. Overeem
4. Werdum and Cain need to fight for it. A win here could leapfrog Overeem.

Im not saying Werdum, but I aint holding a loss from 4 years ago against him. I think one good win would do it though.

I voted Cain, he deserves a chance to show us it was a fluke the first time with JDS.

i disagree, DC has fought his way on top of the contenders list imo

Yep, Cormier has reached name abbreviation status.

DC's next fight should be for the UFC Heavyweight Championship..and i think he can do it

I can't even put into words how amazed I am with Cormier. Dude is the GSP of the heavys. I think he should get the title shot after Mir. I would say after Cain, but if Cain won I don't think they would pull a rashad-jones and fight. Cormier is a humble dude too. He made fan out of me tonight.

He isn't as good as GSP.

Should have specified that I meant his skill set is very well rounded like GSP's.

Well he broke his hand and is supposed to still owe another fight to Strikeforce so unless something changes, it won't be him

Yes but I feel Daniel should have a UFC introduction fight first.

Who are they going to have him fight? All the big boys are in the UFC

Well DC has taken out two top 10 contenders, but Werdum did defeat the best HW of all time, he also gave Overeem fits and hit him more, and he just decimated Big Country. I say Werdum is next!

When did Werdum beat Lesnar ?

ROFLMAO! Yes because Brock is the GOAT in the HW division...

I think Cain is better than Comrier right now, but Cormier is more deserving of a UFC title shot than Cain even if Cain trounces Bigfoot worse than Daniel did.

I voted Cain. I think he takes jds in a rematch. He got caught by jds and i still say he is the best hw in the world. I hope cormier drops to 205lbs and flights bones after he whoops hendo and i get real butthurt and need vengeance.

Jones would beat Cormier at 205 anyway.

I don't know freak, i think dc has the power to beat bones. He might need to polish his skill set on the ground, but i think he is the guy to beat bones.

Cormier won't cut to 205. He damaged his kidneys cutting weight before and won't risk it again. But at a catchweight Cormier might beat Jones. For once Jones wouldn't be the better wrestler and I'm not sure Cormier would be afraid to throw on him since he hasn't been afraid to strike with anyone else so far.

I realize the reach DC gave up vs Barnett & Big Foot, but I think Jones uses his reach better and is obviously much quicker than either. DC would run into problems there. I would love to see that match up. DC's power and takedowns would present Jones with some major issues.

I didn't realize he had kidney issues so I wouldn't blame him for not risking it. That sucks because DC looks like he is about 230lbs. I think that would be a great fight. It would be both guy's toughest challenge.

DC, could lose 25 pounds without cutting weight. He's plenty chubby.

There's no reason for him to
