Santos vs. Teixeira

The Brazilian stars are going to throw down in a fight that could very well deliver a title shot. The winner could advance to face whoever takes the vacant, light heavyweight belt in the September 26th scrap between Jan Blachowicz and Dominick Reyes.

Santos (21-7) hasn’t fought since last July, when he pushed now former champ Jon Jones at UFC 239. Despite injuring both knees in the fight, “Marreta” lost the fight via split decision.

Teixeira (31-7) has been on a roll, as in May, he stopped Anthony Smith to record his fourth straight win.
