UFC heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic is currently gearing up for his next big octagon performance. With that in mind, it would appear that the title holder has pulled in some serious Bellator MMA talent for his fight camp.
Stipe Miocic broke the UFC record for most consecutive heavyweight title defenses when he soundly defeated Francis Ngannou in his latest octagon outing. Now the reining champion will be looking to further his record by facing off against UFC light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier.
The two mixed martial artists will face off at UFC 226. The event will take place July 7 from inside the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nev. The event will be live on pay-per-view.
Now Bellator light heavyweight champion Ryan Bader has taken to social media to reveal that he recently trained with Stipe Miocic ahead of the UFC champion’s big fight. Check it out below:
“Thanks for having me out @stipemiocic and for the work from the great coaches and people @strongstyle_mma”
