Junior dos Santos to face Mirko Cro-Cop at UFC 103

Video – Junior dos Santos vs. Fabricio Werdum

The Brazilian heavyweight fighter Junior dos Santos (January 30, 1984) gained notoriety for a first round knock-out of Fabricio Werdum at UFC 90 (See video above). He has a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Purple belt and is the current Brazilian heavyweight kickboxing champion with a record of 18-0. He faces the Croatian Heavyweight kickboxer Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipović at UFC 103.

Cro Cop is a living legend in Mixed Marital Arts, known especially for his amazing high leg kick strikes to opponents heads. Cro Cop fought for the PRIDE organization before it was bought out and fighters brought over to the UFC. Cro Cop is still looking for a big victory fighting in the UFC and I expect this fight to be a good one.
