On the doorstep of an unprecedented comeback, former UFC veteran Chris Camozzi will make his Octagon return this Saturday at UFC on Fox 15.
The fact that he will take on divisional standout and consensus top contender Ronaldo Souza on just a six-day notice adds to the middleweight’s surprise comeback.
Remember, Camozzi and Souza have met once before, colliding in a 2013 showdown that left Jacare victorious via first-round submission in his promotional debut.
Now while that defeat sent Camozzi on a four-fight losing streak, thus ending his UFC tenure in 2014, the opportunistic 28-year-old has since recorded two first-round finishes on the open circuit.
Needless to say, Souza will be a heavy favorite in the rematch and a guy who is arguably one win away from a title shot.
Here is the head-to-toe breakdown for Saturday’s co-main event.
