Jan Blachowicz wants to shut up Daniel Cormier.
Blachowicz defeated Dominick Reyes in the co-main event of UFC 253 to win the UFC light heavyweight championship, a title once held by former two-division UFC champion Cormier. DC would post a video on Twitter congratulating Blachowicz for his win at UFC 253, while also saying that the new champion looked “a bit slow:”
All hail the king!! @janblachowicz is the new ufc champion. My goodness pic.twitter.com/56K4BgCe1h

Blachowicz did not take to kindly to the comment made by Cormier and he challenged the retired fighter on Twitter.
Hey @dc_mma! If you have so much to say about me, get your fat ass off the couch and come to the Octagon.

Cormier would turn down the challenge from Blachowicz while praising him for winning the light heavyweight strap.
No chance champ, congrats on a big win. You’re the man! You’re the king now, you shouldn’t worry bout what an old retired man is saying. Great job getting that title! https://t.co/9upejqah5P
