Stipe Miocic got his revenge Saturday night.
The 36-year-old scored a fourth-round knockout of Daniel Cormier in UFC 241 to reclaim the heavyweight title in front of a sold-out crowd in Anaheim, Calif. Miocic was considered the greatest heavyweight in UFC history before Cormier pummeled him 13 months ago.
Cormier appeared to have a comfortable lead on Miocic through three rounds, but it mattered not. After knocking out Cormier, Miocic proceeded to dance in the center of the octagon.

You earned it, Stipe.
