Former UFC heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic joins Ariel Helwani on his MMA show and says Francis Ngannou won the fight and knocked out Cain Velasquez, despite Velasquez’s knee injury. Miocic says there’s no match to make in the heavyweight division that is better than Miocic vs. heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier. Miocic says he offered to fight Cormier at Madison Square Garden but Cormier opted to fight Derrick Lewis. Miocic says Cormier owes him a rematch because he didn’t have to take the fight. He says he’s waiting to fight Cormier and wouldn’t take a Ngannou rematch until he does but he hopes Brock Lesnar doesn’t show up for the Cormier fight. He says he thinks of his fight with Cormier “all the time” but has never watched it. He believes he’ll fight Cormier next.

  1. The ufc is quickly turning into wwe. Doesn't the number 1 fight the champ? Or do they wait years to pull out a guy who is in the wwe and hasn't won a mma bout in over half a decade?

  4. Im old enough to remember Stepie constantly telling us when he was champ that he doesnt care. Nobody bought his last fight, DC wants to get paid, why is this so difficult to work out?

  6. At this point you have to admit that DC is ducking Stipe. DC said he couldn’t fight Stipe because he was hurt in November but went ahead and fought Lewis instead. Now he’s again saying he can’t fight Stipe because his back is hurt but just came out and said he’s open to defending the belt against Ngannou. Like cmon man.. I get it DC is well liked here but you can’t honestly believe he wants to fight Stipe.

  7. As much as I love Steopic Miochick ya gotta fight to get that rematch cock sucker.

  9. This just rubs me the wrong way. The only people who should get immediate rematches are those who were robbed in a bad decision or guys like DJ who lose after A LOT of defenses. Cormier beat Stipe convincingly, without controversy. Ngannou has fought and beaten two top guys since then, give it to him.

  10. Francis vs DC title fight and Brock Vs Stipe winner takes on the winner of DC and Francis
