Dominick Reyes calls Daniel Cormier a 'low iq hater' after UFC 333, Cormier tells him to chill

Reyes also wrote that Jon Jones "whooped" Cormier, and Cormier replied that he had praised the win and was "not very hard to find".

Dominick Reyes went after Daniel Cormier in a run of posts on X following his first-round win at UFC 333 in Abu Dhabi on Saturday, and Cormier replied by telling him to "chill".

"Real talk, who actually likes hearing low iq hater ass DC?!" Reyes wrote. He followed it with: "Sick of being the nice guy while these clowns flat out disrespect and marginalize what I've done in this sport. These so called 'experts'."

Reyes also turned to Cormier's history with Jon Jones: "And no Jon jones didn't whoop all of us, he whooped you! Bad! Multiple times. Kid". In another post he added: "Calling me kid, Mf I'm a grown ass man!"

Cormier answered on X: "Yo dom chill. I don't call you kid negatively I've only spoke truth to you. When you do some amazing shit like you did today I praise you. If you do something like the last fight with Johnny, I speak The Truth about that too. But these comments seem like you've been carrying something with you for a while. You can always talk to me. I'm not very hard to find."

Reyes stopped Azamat Murzakanov with a head kick and follow-up punches at 2:40 of the first round on Saturday. His previous fight, the one Cormier referred to, was a split decision win over Johnny Walker at UFC 327 in April.
