There’s a lot of talk about UFC super fights, but rarely do they actually happen. Nine years after then-welterweight champ Georges St-Pierre defended his belt against then-lightweight champ B.J. Penn, the promotion has managed to pair two beltholders for a summer pay-per-view. UFC officials recently finalized the lineup for UFC 226, which is headlined by a heavyweight title fight between that division’s champion, Stipe Miocic (18-2 MMA, 12-2 UFC), and light-heavyweight champ Daniel Cormier (20-1 MMA, 9-1 UFC). The event serves as an anchor to the UFC’s International Fight Week in Las Vegas.
