Jon Jones and Daniel Cormier were scheduled to headline the UFC 200 main event. However, 'Bones' had to drop out of the fight after testing positive for performance enhancing drugs.

In the lead-up to their fight, DC and Jones did an interview with Joe Rogan. During the interview, Cormier predicted that the 34-year-old would not clean up his act and would continue making the same mistakes as before:

"Sobering truth is, his [Jon Jones] history dictates and determines that the same thing is gonna happen. That is his character, that is him at his core. I look at that young lady, that PR lady that's on his team now and I see in her eyes, she knows she's fighting a losing battle. I look at his coaches, I see that these guys know that this kid will not change. He won't. He will not change, he's the same guy, he's rotten at his core and he will continue to f--k up," said Daniel Cormier.

Cormier was referring to Jones' failed drug tests and his multiple run-ins with the law. 'DC' also added that he believed Jones would not learn from his mistakes:
