After recording another knockout victory, Thiago Santos is already set to get back to work.
A middleweight bout between “Marreta” and former World Series of Fighting two-division champion David Branch has officially been added to the April 21 UFC show, which takes place at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, N.J. The booking comes just days after Santos defeated Anthony Smith by second-round TKO in Brazil at UFC Belem.
Santos (17-5) has now won four straight and eight of 10. His finish of Smith put him into a tie with Anderson Silva for the most knockout victories in UFC middleweight history, and he improved his record inside the Octagon to 9-4.
