This is a chance to announce himself to the division and to the MMA world beyond the hardcore fan. This is probably it for Dos Santos, if he loses here his career is effectively over.
His striking is good and he is a pretty tough guy. Back in 2009 in Japan, he won a fight with having broken both his hands.
Hehe, It's the first time I am visiting this part of the forum and I am quite surprised that someone already posted this. About Ivanov: He is a pretty cool guy, was stabbed multiple times and almost died. Doctors said he would never recover and he won't be able to fight again, but he showed insane recovery abilities. I hope he wins this one, Dos Santos is probably retiring after this one. A good scalp for Ivanov's new contract! Fun fact: In his sambo background he has a win over Feodor.
