Stipe unless the let fat chops scratch his face like a cat (again). I see it playing out like the 2nd fight with Stipe working the (fat) body and taking him out in the later rounds

Just posed in the fight thread... basically:

Took Cormier last fight and got burned. He abandoned his game plan, may not have trained as well, mentioned personal stuff, not as focused, whatever. Started strong, changed tactics, couldn't defend Miocic's adjustments, and paid the price.

I'm taking Cormier again, I think he's been fully focused on training for this one, doesn't want to go out looking like a clown, is smart enough to learn from his mistakes and will have a good gameplan and stick to it.

Has Miocic had a full camp and full focus with all the Covid related stuff and his "real-life" job plus the eye healing? Will a shot to the eye cause issues? Don't know, but I'm taking DC again.
