On Wednesday, it was reported the highly anticipated shootout between heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic (pictured) and knockout assassin Francis Ngannou will headline UFC 220.
The January 20 event takes place inside TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts.
MMAFighting.com was the first to report the matchup, which has since been reported by multiple other outlets.
This title tilt joins the light heavyweight scrap between champ Daniel Cormier and Volkan Oezdemir. No too shabby, eh Beantown?
Miocic is victorious in eight of his past nine outings, including five straight. The firefighter’s last two scraps have been of the title defense variety.
