Can Brock Lesnar 2.0 Gable Steveson Become a UFC Champ in 2026? MMA Media Offers Bold Prediction

MMA media member Eric Jackman believes Gable Steveson could become UFC heavyweight champion at some point in 2026.

As we know, Gable Steveson is an interesting prospect in the world of mixed martial arts. After testing the waters in pro wrestling and then pro football, he landed on MMA. The early signs are pretty good, with his first few performances indicating that he could have the potential to do some big things in the UFC if he gets signed to the promotion.

Of course, Gable Steveson has a lot of work to do before he can reach the top of the mountain, but there certainly seems to be a lot of belief in him from many within the sport.
