So this past weekend MMA fans were glued to Fox, as the most highly anticipated UFC heavyweight match up of current (we believe Lesnar vs. Overeem is a bigger match up) Cain Velasquez vs. Junior Dos Santos debuted on TV. It took a mere sixty-four seconds for Dos Santos to become the new heavyweight champion, shocking many in Anaheim. One can say they knew this would happen from the very beginning, others were left wondering as to why Velasquez was not more aggressive working take downs and others cried Velasquez’s time off as a factor in the bout. We had spoke to Cheick Kongo a few weeks back and we knew he had vested interest in this match up.
Kongo explains to our cameras that when he fought Velasquez back in 2009 that he was not in shape and was fighting knee injuries. He strongly wants another shot at Velasquez and though is not sure when he will get a title shot, he senses that he is close.
