Daniel Cormier isn’t impressed with Jon Jones’ performance against Ovince Saint Preux in UFC 197’s main event on Saturday night.

Despite the fact Jones (22-1 MMA, 16-1 UFC) pitched a unanimous decision shutout against Saint Preux (19-8 MMA, 7-3 UFC) at Las Vegas’ MGM Grand Garden Arena in his first bout in 14 months, Cormier (17-1 MMA, 6-1 UFC) said he wasn’t blow away by the “new” version of Jones.

“He got the job done,” Cormier said on FOX Sports 1’s post-fight show. “A lot of times, most guys, they don’t have their best performance, they lose. They don’t get it done. So it shows how special Jon is. That being said, very disappointed that I didn’t get to compete tonight because I do believe that if he showed up in the form that he did tonight, or if this is the new Jon Jones, there’s no way that guy can beat me.”

Although Cormier gave minimal credit to his rival Jones, he was willing to give much more to Saint Preux. “OSP” replaced the injured Cormier in the main event bout on less than one month’s notice and went five rounds with the fighter many call the No. 1 pound-for-pound fighter in the sport. Moreover, he apparently did it with a broken arm in the final two rounds. Cormier said that deserves praise.

“Not only did he do a good job, his coaches did a good job,” Cormier said. “They prepared him. They had him ready for a five-round fight in three weeks – that’s hard to do. They worked his takedown defense. … I thought he did a good job. He should be proud of himself.”

UFC President Dana White said after UFC 197 that Cormier could fight Jones in the main event of UFC 200 if both participants are healthy. Jones said he was banged up coming out of the fight, though, which puts that possibility in question. If cleared, however, Cormier said he could be ready depending on the result of a Monday doctor’s appointment.

“I go to the doctor on Monday,” Cormier said. “I feel much better already. I did the stem cell (treatment) and I’m able to walk good now. I feel like I can be healthy for anytime. UFC 200 needs a main event. (If) the doctor gives me the go-ahead, I’ll be ready to go. Let’s get this guy back in the octagon. Let’s go. I want nothing more than to fight this guy every day of the week.”
