The UFC heavyweight title stayed in the grip of Stipe Miocic at UFC 203. Confronting the very enriched striker Alistair Overeem in the headliner on September 10, the main residence most loved scored a first round knockout. It was a very enthralling session, and further demonstrated that Stipe is the man to beat at 265 right at this point. Taking after stoppage wins over Mark Hunt, Andrei Arlovski and Fabricio Werdum, the Cleveland local's annihilation of 'The Reem' conveys his streak to four. Another heavyweight who put forth a major expression at UFC 203 was Fabricio Werdum. The ex-champion went up against Travis Browne in the co-headliner rematch. 'Vai Cavalo' brought home the consistent choice, however not before front kicking Browne's mentor Edmond Tarverdyan in a post-battle fight. The Brazilian crushed Cain Velasquez by accommodation to assert the title at UFC 188 preceding taking about a year out. Werdum returned and lost the belt to Miocic by KO in Brazil, thus we turn up at ground zero.
Cain Velasquez
Having scored a predominant win over Browne at UFC 200, previous two-time heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez has supposedly been offered a title battle. Conversing with 'UFC Tonight' have colleague Daniel Cormier, Velasquez said he won't wait for Stipe Miocic until 2017. Reports demonstrate the champion needs to take a break, so "CV" needs to settle an old score meanwhile. "(Stipe) is a person that moves well, he's difficult to secure. He looked great against Overeem. I viewed a tad bit (of Werdum's) battle, a portion of the shenanigans. In the event that Stipe doesn't enjoy a reprieve, I need him next. I'm listening to that he wouldn't like to battle again until 2017. In the event that that is the situation, I need Werdum in December. This one is close to home. I could simply lounge around and hold up, however Werdum needs a battle in December, we should get it going. With (Jon Jones') test returning positive and coming and getting (a title battle with Micoic) would be BS."
Cain Wants Revenge
After such a terrible beat down against Werdum that brought about Velasquez tapping out, it's nothing unexpected he needs exact retribution. As you'll see later on in the meeting with "DC," the ex-heavyweight manager says the UFC have for sure offered him a title shot. It's verging on reviving to see another contender needing to stay dynamic as opposed to remove themselves from the condition for a shot at the belt.
