New UFC Champ Stipe Miocic Invite from the Cav’s

UFC continues to become bigger and bigger. I will post details about the UFC's New York debut as soon as available. Look for the fight at MSG in late fall. Big names will be on the bill for the New York debut.

TMZ says -

The Cleveland Cavs just extended a VIP invitation to the new UFC heavyweight champ Stipe Miocic -- an Ohio native who shouted out the NBA team after winning the belt at UFC 198 this past weekend.

TMZ Sports spoke with the Cavs who told us ... they saw the video of Stipe encouraging the Cavs to follow his lead and win the championship -- and they LOVED IT!

In fact, we're told the team reached out and invited him as their guest for Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals Tuesday night at the Quicken Loans Arena.

Miocic accepted -- obviously -- and we're told the team plans to honor him tonight for making Cleveland proud.
Congrats, champ!
