Daniel Cormier believes Reinier de Ridder’s corner did the right thing by throwing in the towel at UFC Vancouver.
De Ridder was originally scheduled to face Anthony Hernandez in a potential middleweight title eliminator at UFC Vancouver on Saturday. However, Brendan Allen replaced Hernandez, who was forced out with an injury. “All In” was a sizeable underdog against de Ridder going into the main event. While De Ridder roped in the first round, Allen took over as the fight progressed.
“The Dutch Knight” was visibly exhausted by the third round, leading the cageside doctor to take a look at him.
