It turned him from an exciting fighter into a very safe grinder. Successful, but frustrating to watch. I ended up watching his fights and rooting for his opponent out of frustration.
My only problem with peoples comments in this thread regarding Cormier is that folks were letting their personal feelings dictate their predictions and fighter analysis. That's all.

It probably seemed worse than what it was given the fights DC had to follow. DC was the only fighter on the PPV that drew boos from the crowd for lack of action.
