It’s fashionable for UFC fighters to challenge boxers in their own sport. After all, if Conor McGregor can possibly land a fight with Floyd Mayweather, why can’t others try the same thing with the other top names in the boxing world?
Reigning UFC heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic, a former Cleveland Golden Gloves winner, has expressed interest in fighting the world’s best heavyweight boxer, Anthony Joshua. Miocic is coming off a quick TKO win over Junior dos Santos at UFC 211, as he used his powerful hands and boxing skills to successfully defend his title.
