The UFC heavyweight division is better than it ever has been.
For the first time in almost its entire history, the biggest weight class in the promotion has a legitimate blend of steely former champions, young up-and-comers and hardened veterans. It has a multitude of fresh matchups available for decision-makers. And most of all? It has a vast majority of the world’s elite talent.
Sitting atop this boom has been Stipe Miocic.
Already the most successful heavyweight champion in UFC history, Miocic has established himself as the man to beat in a way nobody else in the promotion's history has.
