JUNIOR DOS SANTOS NEXT IN LINE FOR UFC TITLE SHOT

Written by Jordan Small. Posted in Blogs - The Rumble

Junior dos Santos is the type of fighter everyone loves. When he steps in the Octagon Junior is head hunting. He looks to gain to the upper hand and capitalize on his opponents using his fists and so far no UFC fighter has been able to figure him out. Since joining the UFC in 2008, Junior has piled on KO win after KO win (6-0 UFC 5 TKO).

At UFC 117, Junior put a striking clinic on his opponent Roy Nelson, winning a unanimous decision. Working the body and uppercut, dos Santos made it clear from the get-go that Nelson was in for a long, painful night.

Junior's win also cemented a statement to the winner of Brock Lesnar and Cain Velasquez that they are going to be punished and punished severely. Junior will face off with the winner after challenger Cain and champion Brock collide at UFC 121 in October.

The next two UFC heavyweight title fights aren't looking easy for anyone, but to be the best you have to keep proving you're the best and that's why we love this sport.
