Admire Some of Stipe's Work (GIFs inside)

[Final Say]

Of course there are more, but these are the two fights where he seemed to put it all together nicely. His masterpieces, I suppose.

Smelled the blood on this last one and ate a punch for getting over aggressive.. but still

Yes. Stipe is good.

I like Stipe but hope my boy DC wins, the derailing of the Ngannou hype train was a thing of beauty though.

Yet people seem to misremember the stand up in that fight and say Stipe was getting tagged up... he outclassed Francis!

Just shows that you don't have to be built like a Greek God to have devastating KO power. His technique is so good and he hardly ever misses his target. His KO of Werdum while he was moving backwards was so damn impressive. DC best be careful!

Ngannou has a granite jaw.

Most middleweights couldn't employ that kind of footwork on an actual punching bag

Boxing skill is at a premium in MMA, especially as the classes get heavier

Stipe is a fun fighter to watch, but damn he runs into some of those punches.

Hope he can get the k.o.

Who doesn't like him? There is literally NOTHING unlikeable about the guy! That should be the test to be considered hardcore vs casual, I can't imagine any hardcore fan saying they don't like Miocic

I forgot all about the Nelson fight from years ago. Stipe used to be quicker and more athletic. Obviously because he was younger. But yeah even though I'd say he's still in his prime, he used to be even better.
