UFC 230: Twitter Reacts to Daniel Cormier Vs. Derrick Lewis Main Event

UFC 230 is in the books and it has been firmly established that Daniel Cormier is one of the greatest UFC Champions in the company's history. Twitter was on fire as they praised the champion for putting on a great performance in the main event.

Hey @danawhite, you’re the absolute best Brother. Love ya. Thank you for elevating the @ufc AND Boxing. However....I did warn you about Lewis vs @dc_mma. NO DUDE w/ a lifetime contract with Popeye’s Chicken is beating a champion like Cormier. I warned you. I was NOT wrong. Sorry!

Of course, there were many messages about the challenger, Derrick Lewis as well. Twitter had a lot to say about the man who went toe to toe with the champion on short notice and ultimately succumbed to Daniel Cormier.

I feel compelled to take a moment to appreciate the run Derrick Lewis went on just to get here. He finally hit his ceiling, but we've rarely seen someone get this far on heart alone. I'd be fine with another 10 years of fun fights out of him from here.

From now on Popeye's new name is Derrick Lewis' House of Chicken 🍗

The question remains. Who will Daniel Cormier face before he hangs it all up in the octagon? The obvious contenders are Brock Lesnar and Jon Jones. Stipe Miocic also deserves a rematch for the title!

After his win last night, UFC Heavyweight Champion Daniel Cormier, called out Brock Lesnar, including the fact that he had won the WWE Universal title.And people wonder why WWE put the belt back on Lesnar.

Jon Jones need to come back and take these belts off Cormier

— B.O.L.O⚡️ (@Enock1Yk) November 5, 2018

Daniel Cormier nice and all but until he beats Jon Jones he can’t go around saying he’s the greatest

@dc_mma DC you've had a great career but in my opinion, you should fight atleast 2 more times, Lesnar, and do a rematch with Jones because the last one was a NC.

DC calling out Lesnar... boy Brock will eat you alive.

— Drew McCay⚜️ (@mr_mccay) November 5, 2018

DC is on another planet, hard to imagine anyone stopping him but Lesnar should be a good fight! #UFC230
