JDS talks about his upcoming opponent, Ben Rothwell, and believes the heavyweight veteran shares similarities to Conor McGregor.
Add "Big Ben" Rothwell to the list of fighters compared to Irish sensation Conor McGregor. "The Notorious" has been likened to Nick Diaz, Chael Sonnen, Floyd Mayweather Jr, and Prince Naseem Hamed on his path to stardom in the UFC.
Former heavyweight champion Junior dos Santos, who will square off with Rothwell in the main event of UFC Fight Night 86, made the comparison to MMA Fighting on Friday.
"I see some of Rothwell's characteristics like Conor McGregor," dos Santos said.
