With the sweat still fresh on Werdum’s freshly-minted undisputed UFC heavyweight title belt, dos Santos is making his play for first dibs.
“#WerdumvsDosSantos2 I’m coming for that belt. Let’s do this Werdum!” dos Santos tweeted late Monday night with the above pic.
Dos Santos holds a 2008 TKO victory over Werdum, but a lot has transpired since their initial UFC 90 encounter. First and foremost, neither is the same fighter.
Werdum has come out of nowhere to emerge as the UFC’s new “Baddest Man on the Planet” after dethroning Cain Velasquez, the previous owner of that moniker, this past Saturday at UFC 188.
