Stipe Miocic Responds to the Fight Cancellation
Stipe in his OnlyFans account, opened up about how he feels about the fight cancellation.
“How did I feel when I woke up today? Like I got kicked in the nuts. In the morning, I woke up to my phone vibrating. It was dark, I had my son on top of me, trying to move and get my phone. I finally got my phone and had a text message from my manager saying my fight was off.”
