Considered the underdog for the fight, the Brazilian wants the victory to enter the UFC's top 10 rankings, even if it's in the light heavyweight division. “I think it's fair that I enter the top 10, because I would beat the seventh-ranked heavyweight. It's fair that I enter the top 10, at least in the light heavyweight division. Belfort beat Dan Henderson in the light heavyweight division and is already qualified to fight Chris Weidman in the middleweight division, isn't he?” Maldonado asked.
Miocic reveals that he will not be impressed by the pressure from the Brazilian fans. For him, his opponent tonight will be Maldonado. I'm going to try to get there and fight, without worrying (about the fans). It’s a guy (Maldonado) I have to deal with,” he said.
