Making the Grade: UFC 252: Miocic vs. Cormier 3

There have been a number of championship trilogies in UFC history, but Stipe Miocic and Daniel Cormier might have cemented their spot at the top of that all-time list after going to war for the third time on Saturday night.

After Cormier finished Miocic inside one round in the initial meeting, the Cleveland native bounced back with a stunning fourth-round TKO in the rematch. With the heavyweight title on the line, not to mention the legacy of winning the rubber match in the series, Miocic ultimately won the day with a unanimous decision victory.
