Stipe is the son of Kathy and Bojan Miocic. The heavyweight champion is of Croatian descent and while he understands the Croatian language, he is not fluent in it yet.
He plans to become a full-time firefighter once his MMA career. He says that this is a way for him to fall back on something once he stops being active inside the octagon.
Stipe Miocic Next Fight
Miocic’s next fight is a massive one as he looks to defend his belt for the second time in a row. He faced Francis Ngannou for the UFC heavyweight championship at UFC 260.
The main event, which took place on 27th March, 2021, is a rematch of their earlier bout at UFC 220.
Miocic, of course, won back then but the fight went the full 5 rounds. And with Ngannou training with Teddy Atlas and having Kamaru Usman help him work on his wrestling, the rematch might just be more evenly match than people think so.
This is the first time that Miocic will face an opponent other than Daniel Cormier since January 20, 2018. And that opponent was the Cameroonian Ngannou himself.
However, things didn’t go in Miocic’s favour. He was knocked out by Ngannou in the second round and lost his belt.
