UFC heavyweight title fights don’t get any bigger than this. The promotion today announced that Stipe Miocic will defend his crown against light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier at UFC 226 to culminate the two men coaching against each other on Season 27 of “The Ultimate Fighter.” UFC 226 takes place July 7 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and airs on pay-per-view following prelims on FS1 and UFC Fight Pass. Miocic (18-2 MMA, 12-2 UFC) and Cormier (20-1 MMA, 9-1 UFC) both are coming off dominant title defenses last weekend at UFC 220.
