Miocic badly wants trilogy with Ngannou: I know what I did wrong, it drives me nuts

Stipe Miocic is adamant he can avenge his UFC 260 loss to Francis Ngannou and win back his heavyweight title.

Miocic, 38, won his first encounter with Ngannou in January 2018 but was brutally knocked out by ‘The Predator’ in March. Talking recently to Submission Radio, Miocic congratulated Ngannou for the win but admitted the loss has been driving him crazy.
