White is so confident that Miocic will retire after the previously planned Heavyweight title fight fell through that it's a guarantee in his mind. Therefore, whether or not Miocic can make history and become a three-time undisputed champion or not against Jones (likely in November 2024), the interim champion, Tom Aspinall, will have his hands full with more complications.

Dorothy Dandridge was one of Hollywood’s first Black sex symbols and the first black actress to be nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress. Around 1930, Dandridge relocated to Los Angeles, California, with her family. A few years later she found success with her new musical group, the Dandridge Sisters, which included sister Vivian and their friend Etta Jones. The group landed gigs at the famous Cotton Club in Harlem and performed with top acts such as the Jimmie Lunceford Orchestra and Cab Calloway. As an African American singer, Dandridge confronted early on the segregation and racism of the entertainment industry.

Ultimate Fighting Championship’s (UFC) Heavyweight division has everyone and their grandmother losing their minds.
