Dana White opens up on UFC stars
On Tuesday, the UFC President Dana White spoke to UFC Arabia on the returns of huge stars like Khamzat Chimaev, Tony Ferguson, Stipe Miocic, Nick Diaz, and other members of the roster.
He also talked about including upcoming title defenses for certain champions. The UFC president also revealed the location for UFC 266, as well as the latest on UFC Fight Night in London.
Speaking about Miocic, the UFC President revealed with Derrick Lewis vs. Ciryl Gane, where does that leave Stipe Miocic. TJ Dillashaw Reveals Nate Diaz Paycheck Claim
He said:
“This is the fight that makes sense (Lewis vs. Gane) right now and again, Stipe after that fight (Ngannou), he’s getting up there in age, he needs some time to recover after fights like that, so I think it’s a perfect scenario. You got Lewis who beat Francis, Ciryl Gane who’s one of the up-and-coming guys, undefeated. They fight for the interim heavyweight championship and the winner will face Francis, and then the winner of that will probably end up facing Stipe.”
