Q&A: UFC Heavyweight Champion Stipe Miocic on Daniel Cormier, Firefighting and More

Stipe Miocic defends his UFC heavyweight title for a record-setting fourth time this Saturday night at UFC 226 against Daniel Cormier.

Cormier, 39, is the current UFC light heavyweight champion and has only tasted defeat during his illustrious nine-year career against one man: Jon Jones. Miocic will have a stiff test against Cormier, who is a former Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand Prix champion and is making his return to the heavyweight division for the fight. A win would allow Cormier to add the UFC Heavyweight title to his pedigree, as he looks to further cement his legacy as one of the greatest fighters in the history of mixed martial arts.
