Stipe Miocic: Francis Ngannou improved but UFC 260 will have ‘the same outcome’

It’s easy to forget the past when Francis Ngannou is currently tearing through the heavyweight division and knocking out top contenders like it’s nobody’s business.

But Stipe Miocic plans to remind ‘The Predator’ who the real ‘baddest man on the planet’ is on March 27 when both men collide for the heavyweight title in a replay of their first championship bout at UFC 220.
