After the success of the UFC’s last trip to Brazil, they are returning again in January and bringing a stacked card filled with exciting strikers. It’s headlined by UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo.
At UFC 134, 11 of 12 Brazilians walked away with victories. Will they find that same type of success again?
Aldo will be taking on top contender Chad Mendes, who many consider to be his toughest test. In what could be Aldo’s last fight in the 145-pound weight class, he will have to make a statement in his home country.
In the co-main event, former UFC light heavyweight champion Vitor Belfort will face former welterweight contender Anthony Johnson.
This is a full breakdown of the entire event.
