Newly crowned UFC heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic took home a championship for his hometown of Celeveland after knocking out Fabricio Werdum at UFC 198 over the weekend.
With the NBA’s Cleveland Cavaliers looking to make their way to the NBA finals, Miocic sent a message to the Cavs following his championship win.
