Junior dos Santos said he knows exactly what he has to do to beat Brock Lesnar when the two heavyweights meet at UFC 131 in Vancouver, Canada, and the game plan shouldn’t come as much of a surprise to anyone.

As dos Santos told Ariel Helwani on Monday’s episode of The MMA Hour, success in this fight will depend on his ability to defend against Lesnar’s takedowns and target the former champ’s suspect chin.

“He’s a wrestler, so he feels uncomfortable when people throw punches on him,” dos Santos told Helwani. “I think his fight against Cain Velasquez shows good things for me, because I think he’s got a weak chin. I will try to use that, try to throw some punches and…try to use my boxing.”
