Is he the greatest of all the time?

Stipe Miocic... yes i am talking about him.

First of all lets start long time in the past during the Pride days. Can you remember the good old times?
Emilianenko Fedor, Mirko Cro Cop, Minotauro, Randelman, Silva that was the pure art to see. But there is one thing to say which is really important. That time was time full of specialists. Lets say this way Minotauro was Jiu Jitsu black belt who learn how to fight stand up, he had Jiu Jitsu parter base and learn how to strike.

Cro Cop was striker, based on boxing and learned how to do grapling and ground fight. I want to say that in that days MMA was young sport you had greco-romanian whrestler who learn how to box and that was a fighter. Because in that days you can see some special moves like Cro Cop high kick, Minotauro arm bar, Fedor KO in insane boxing combinations.

These days it is different, MMA is sport but not as before. Before it was people from whrestling, Jiu Jitsu, Judo, Box trying to learn others techniques to be complete. Today you have fighters who are training all this segments, you have all segments in one training. Lets say you begin training with boxing than you have defense against throwing on the ground and on the end you have ground game. That is the key why this sport had become on another level than before.

Now lets talk about the the baddest man on earth. Mirko Miocic yes he is the baddest man on the earth. He is defended his belt for 3 times. That is the new record. He has score 18-2-0. He has 8 knockouts wins.

Last 5 fights before the fight vs Francis Nagannou he had 5 knockouts, he is full skilled fighter. If you are a true fan of MMA watch his fight against Roy Nelson he absolutely domianted him, make terror on him with punches. He KO Mark Hunt Pride emparior. Ant then 3 fights for belt Fabricio Werdum KO, Alistar Overeem KO, Junior Dos Santos KO.

I will write something about the last fight vs Nagannou. First of all i can not understand why people was so hyped for this fight. Yes Francis is really insane striker, it is one punch KO. But Stipe Miocic has really iron chin, he has grapling, whrestling on solid level, in case he was whrestling for his college, in America who is in that ligue is really good.
His stamnia is good moving, boxing is on the another level. He is pure striker with technique that i can say in the heavy division nobody has.

But what is important to say he is inteligent fighter, with lot of experience. What you can see in fight vs Francis Nagannou is absolutely domination in 5 rounds. He dominated and terror him for 5 rounds. Francis was over after first round with stamnia and strength.

Francis will be no 1 after Stipe i think. But for now he need more experience.
