UFC heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic wants to join Conor McGregor as a mixed martial artist crossing over into boxing after he challenged Anthony Joshua to a fight earlier this year.
Miocic told FOX Sports in early June that he would love the opportunity to box Joshua, who is fresh off a ‘Fight of the Year’ type performance in his bout with Wladimir Klitschko.
“I think it would be a great fight,” Miocic told the Fight Society podcast about the fight. “He’s an amazing fighter. I think it would be great, something different. I’d love to show what I’ve got.
