This upcoming weekend we have a title bout in the UFC fighting ring as UFC 260 is scheduled to happen, with the headlining bout going down between two-time champion Stipe Miocic and Francic Ngannou.

UFC 260 isn't the first time the two heavyweights are facing each other, as they also met at UFC 220, back in January 2018, in what seems like a lifetime ago. Then, Miocic won via unanimous decision, managing to defend his title for the third time in a row, setting a record. 

Now, as the rematch is drawing closer, he hopes to manage the same feat, while Ngannou hopes to knock him down a peg.
