<h3 style="text-align: center">Who is Stipe Miocic?</h3>
<strong>Stipe Miocic</strong> is the most successful heavyweight in UFC history with four title defenses across two reigns. His records at the heaviest weight class have earned him the UFC heavyweight GOAT status among many. When Miocic is not fighting some of the scariest fighters in MMA, he saves lives as a fireman in Cleveland. As of November 2024, he sits at #8 in the UFC men's heavyweight rankings.
<h3 style="text-align: center">Stipe Miocic’s early life</h3>
The two-time UFC heavyweight champion was born on August 19, 1982 in Independence, Ohio, USA. He was born and raised in Euclid Ohio and his parents are Croatian. His parents divorced when he was a toddler and his mother Kathy raised him while his father Bojan moved to Austria. <em>“I was a mama’s boy. </em><em>She’s awesome, a great lady”</em> - he told UFC.com. In fact, he had not seen their homeland until 2015, when he went there to train with Croatian UFC legend Mirko Cro Cop.

In 2019, after he reclaimed the heavyweight title from Daniel Cormier, Miocic revealed his father had beaten cancer. <em>“I’m so happy for you, dad. I got this belt, this is for you OK... </em><em>My dad just got cleared of cancer, by the way, today. How awesome is that, right? He acted like it was no big thing. He’s like, ‘Oh I’m clear’.”</em>

He earned a reported $750K for the first Daniel Cormier fight and just above a million dollars in the trilogy match at UFC 252, which is also his biggest paycheck to date.

He would put together another 3-fight winning run, including a win over Roy Nelson, before losing a decision to Junior Dos Santos in December 2014. And after that, Miocic went on his legendary run of, winning six on the trot, including a title bout and successful defenses.

After first-round KO wins over Mark Hunt and Andrei Arlovski, Miocic fought the former champion, <strong>Fabricio Werdum</strong>, in UFC 198 in Brazil for the heavyweight title where he shocked the world by knocking 'Vai Cavalo' out in the first round. The firefighter from Cleveland would then defend his title against <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/alistair-overeem/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Alistair Overeem</a>, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/francis-ngannou/">Francis Ngannou</a>, and Junior Dos Santos and write his name in the history books for most consecutive title defenses in the heavyweight division. Of these six opponents since the loss to Dos Santos the first time around, only Francis Ngannou went to a decision; the rest were all done in one by 'Stone Cold.'

Miocic lost his title to <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/daniel-cormier/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Daniel Cormier</a> in UFC 226. However, he knocked out Cormier in the rematch to regain his title in UFC 241. Subsequently, he defended his title almost a year later at UFC 252 in a trilogy bout.
