Does Stipe really strike you as that type of fighter?In the works...Stipe could still duck or get "injured".
DC Volkan was not viable thoAccording to the MMAFighting article, it is official.
"Stipe Miocic will defend the belt against Francis Ngannou in the main event of UFC 220 on Jan. 20 in Boston, sources confirmed with MMA Fighting’s Ariel Helwani on Wednesday. MMAjunkie was the first to report the news."
"UFC 220 already had a viable main event. Daniel Cormier will defend his UFC light heavyweight title against Volkan Oezdemir on the card. That matchup has now been bumped down to the co-main event to make away for Miocic vs. Ngannou."
I guess that's why Stipe accepted the fight even though the Overeem KO is fresh on everyone's mind.Jeez that got made fast as hell.
Francis doesn't seem to be too picky with his terms. Confidence will do that for you, I guess.
Seems that way.I guess that's why Stipe accepted the fight even though the Overeem KO is fresh on everyone's mind.

UFC 220 with a HW main event and LHW co-main. Pretty cool. Has that ever been done before? Wonder how it'll do on PPV. Both wrestler vs striker matchups too.
I'm picking Ngannou. He looked strong in the clinch against Reem, and I'm not sure Stipe can take his power.
its not official ya goof. mmajunkie stated it is in the works, no source given. mmafighting repeated the story and made it 'confirmed'
typical shitbag journalism.
You know JDS is 34 and was coming of that great win against Rothwell rightWe'll finally get to see how Stipe is against someone that isn't 40 years old and at the end of their career. If he wins this, it would be hard to deny him best UFC HW of all time. The only guy left he would even have to fight is Cain.
