Tungviktskungen, Stipe Miocic, har ett meddelande till Jon Jones. Jones som efter sin seger mot Daniel Cormier utmanade den tidigare tungviktsmästaren, Brock Lesnar, har fått ett svar från UFCs nuvarande mästare, Miocic.
I feel like if I was going to take a fight at heavyweight it would be against a person who me and my coaches feel would be a perfect matchup for me. Right now, Stipe is looking extremely impressive. And I believe if you get an extremely talented big guy versus an extremely talented little guy, I mean, a lot of the cards are in his favor. At the same time, I fear no man. I strike for a reason when I strike.
I feel like Stipe is relatively unknown to the general public. It wouldn’t even be a real superfight in my opinion. I think a lot of MMA fans would be super excited about it, but the general public wouldn’t care about that fight.
Miocic säger till FloCombat under måndagen att han skulle kunna tänka sig att möta vemsomhelst och att han i allra högsta grad är relevant.
Listen, I’ll fight anyone. If the UFC wants me to fight Jon, I’ll fight him. All I care about right now is breaking that record, winning now and keeping the belt for a long time. I think I am relevant, I don’t know what he’s talking about. I don’t have as many fans as him on social media maybe, but I’m pretty sure I’m relevant.
I’m the baddest man on the planet for a reason. He can think what he wants, whatever. Listen, at the end of the day I am relevant.
Miocic anser sig vara bra mycket bättre än vad Brock Lesnar någonsin varit och menade att han utgör ett större hot än vad Brock Lesnar gör.
Yeah definitely, I’m a bigger risk 100-percent than Brock Lesnar. There’s no question.
Miocic tror att han kan matchas väl med Jones och tror att han kan ge den lätta-tungviktsmästaren en rejäl utmaning.
I feel I match up well. I think I match up well against anyone. I have a terrible style [to deal with] and I always come into a fight prepared. I have the best coaches and teammates in the world so no matter what fight it is against who, I’m walking out the winner.
Miocic gick sin senaste match mot Junior Dos Santos. En match Miocic vann genom teknisk knockout i rond ett.
