That karma!!! Well played"He cannot punch," Cormier laughed as he spoke to Opie & Jim Norton (HT: MMA Digest). "He hit me, and I'm like 'Wow! This is actually him punching me as hard as he can.' He can't punch, so he has to throw elbows, kicks, and knees, because he can't punch. He doesn't hit very hard, so he has to do something."
"He does not punch very hard, I'll be honest with you, man. He kicks very hard, he knees very hard, and he elbows hard, but he can't punch."
As for who he believes hits the hardest, Cormier says it's his previous opponent, Rumble.
"Anthony Johnson, 100 percent," he said. "Anthony Johnson hits harder than any other person, no doubt. Every time he hit me, it made me kind of like fly all over the place. He was trying to take my head off. Even when he'd miss, you can hear it."
"Roy Nelson too, was swinging for the fences, and Dan Henderson," he continued. "Dan Henderson, even when you're close and he hits you from very very close, you can feel how heavy his hands are. His hands are pretty powerful."

Yes, Bones has average power for hands for someone of his size/athleticism
but he has elite kicks, knees, and elbows (GOD level).
DC punches really hard, not the hardest but he’s up there.
He isn't wrong. Jones is not a great puncher. I wish he added better boxing to his game because Jones would be even more unstoppable. Even if he just added a great jab
Damn nice catchIronically the punches he completely knocked out Cormier with on the ground were some of the most vicious GnP shots ever witnessed inside the octagon.
Look at the face of death on Cormier during that barrage:
It doesn't look like Daniel is laughing at Jon's punching power there, does it?
He already uses his eyepoke rake as a jab, and it is very effective.
DCs knocked out who? Bigfoot and Cummins? Yea hes totally a knockout artist himself haha.
