Američko-hrvatski borac Stipe Miočić posjetio je Dallas, gdje će 13. svibnja i drugi put, nadamo se uspješno, obraniti naslov UFC prvaka u teškoj kategoriji.

THANK YOU #DALLAS! It’s been a great week. Headed back to The Land. See you May 13! #UFC211 #AndStill #Victory #ThisIsCLE

Družio se sa svojim suparnikom, Brazilcem Juniorom dos Santosom, protiv kojeg se već borio… Uživali su i u teksaškoj kuhinji… Izgubio je Stipe taj meč prije tri godine i nema boljeg trenutka za revanš!

Got to hang out with @dwightpowell and the rest of the @dallasmavs today. Also got to meet some of @dallasfirerescue ‘s finest too! Thank you for everything you do guys! #AndStill #Champion #UFC211

Velika podrška Miočiću je i njegova supruga…

Being a champion isn’t about boasting, bragging, insults, or useless banter. Being a champion is about courage, honor, and respect. Respect for everyone you encounter. Respect for your opponents, their teams, and families. Respect for your art. Respect for hard work, always conducting yourself like the professional, positive, role model you are both inside and outside of the octagon. Being a champion is about setting a positive example for kids, who are the future of your sport. True champions are those who lead by example using their actions, not their words. Sometimes the most proud moments I have of you @stipemiocicufc are the ones that have nothing to do with fighting. #ufc211 #teammiocic #andstill #andforever

“Šampion nije netko tko se time busa u prsa, tko se time hvali, tko vrijeđa… “Trebate imati hrabrosti, časti i poštovanja. Poštovanja prema svakom koga susrećete. Poštovanja prema vašim protivnicima, njihovim momčadima i obiteljima. Poštovanja prema vašoj umjetnosti. Poštovanja prema napornom radu i stalne brige o tome da se ponašate kao profesionalac, pozitivac, uzor unutar oktogona i izvan njega. Da biste postali prvak, trebate pokazati pozitivan primjer djeci koja su budućnost vašeg sporta. Istinski su prvaci oni koji vode primjerom koristeći svoja djela, a ne riječi. Najponosniji trenuci koje pamtim s tobom, Stipe, oni su koji nemaju veze s borbom.”

We did awesome today. Thank you so much to everyone that showed up and to everyone that donated on line. Special thanks to Officer Jim Green and the rest of the Independence Police Department for helping out. And another big thank you to @danawhite for his big donation! #AndStill #Champion #cleveland #ilovemydog #puppies @cuyahogadogs

Svjetski prvak je veliki ljubitelj pasa, a poput hrvatske legende Mirka Filipovića aktivno sudjeluje u kampanjama za pomoć napuštenim životinjama.

Bad news: Im getting locked up today. Good news: You can help bail me out from 2-4 today. Bail is set at $1000. If you can’t get here in person you can donate through the link in my profile. All donations will go to the medical bills of the pups here. Please donate! And make sure you remind @danawhite to donate too! #AndStill #UFC211 #Rescue #Puppies

Stipe je zahvalio svima koji su pomogli, a posebno predsjedniku UFC-a Dani Whiteu koji je uplatio veliku donaciju.
