UFC 203 is underway.
The event is headlined by a heavyweight title match between Stipe Miocic and Alistair Overeem. Miocic captured the belt in May and is looking to notch his first defense. Overeem will attempt to make Miocic’s reign a short one. He enters riding a four-fight win streak that culminated with a TKO win over Andrei Arlovski earlier this year.
Former heavyweight champion Fabricio Werdum is seeking a return to the win column in the evening’s co-main event. He takes on Travis Browne, who has dropped three of his last five. The bout marks a rematch from 2014 that went Werdum’s way.
UFC 203 will also host the MMA debut of former WWE star, CM Punk.
