I casually follow the UFC, so some of the personalities and their behavior is unknown to me, but I thought this was one of the better Twitter exchanges in perhaps ever.
Johnson (22-5) addressed the situation on Twitter, saying he hopes Cormier has a "full recovery."
I wish nothing but the best for DC and I hope you have a full recovery champ...

Cormier (18-1) responded to Johnson:
@Anthony_Rumble I left a message for you on ur phone. I apologize. We Will get to rock and roll bruh. Once again my apologies. DC
