Stipe Miocic dethroned Daniel Cormier from the top of the UFC Heavyweight division and recaptured the Heavyweight title at UFC 241.
Miocic, who lost the title to Cormier a few months back, came back strong in the rematch and secured a fourth-round finish. Meanwhile, in the co-main event, a returning Nate Diaz outclassed former champion Anthony Pettis and marked an eventful comeback.
After the fight, Nate also called out Jorge Masvidal for a fight. Paulo Costa and Yoel Romero went to war in their showdown with Costa coming out on top via a decision. Sodiq Yussuf and Derek Brunson also ended up on the winning column. Khama Worthy delivered a praise-worthy performance and went home with a first-round stoppage win in the event.
