Junior dos Santos is hopeful of a title fight against current UFC heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier, before ‘DC’ eventually retires.
Dos Santos (20-5) is on a two-fight winning streak for the first time since 2011/12, defeating Blagoy Ivanov by decision and most recently beating Tai Tuivasa by TKO in December. “Cigano” will hope to make it three wins in a row when he takes on former title challenger Derrick Lewis in March.
”Derrick Lewis just fought for the belt, he’s No. 2 in that ranking the UFC does, so it’s a great fight,” dos Santos told MMA Fighting.
