In search of a rebound victory after a frustrating loss to Ian Heinisch snapped his five-fight winning streak, middleweight Antonio Carlos Junior is ready to try out a new gameplan for his match against hard-hitting Uriah Hall at UFC Vancouver.
Despite being a decorared Brazilian jiu-jitsu blackbelt, Junior tells Combate that a key part of his MMA grappling had been missing from his arsenal all this time, the ground and pound. Now, ready to make full use of it against Hall, ‘Cara de Sapato’ believes that a more agressive approach on the ground might be way to secure the win in Canada.
