The heavyweights slugged it out and traded wins in two crazy fights that had the sport frothing for a third. They’ll settle the score Saturday when Miocic defends the championship against Cormier in the main event of UFC 252 at the UFC APEX complex in Las Vegas. The 37-year-old Miocic is a two-time champion and started his second reign when he defeated Cormier last August in the rematch at UFC 241. Cormier lost both fights to Jones, his big, bitter rival, with the second one overturned when Jones failed a doping test. It’s the one Miocic plans to win and continue to reign as champ -- and strengthen his legacy as the greatest.
