Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza and Gegard Mousasi first met in the Dream 6: Middleweight Grand Prix final in 2008.
Souza, predominantly known as a submission artist at the time, didn’t have much to offer against Mousasi in the striking department and fell victim to a TKO just two minutes into the bout.
The loss would go on to fuel Jacare enough to go undefeated in his next six bouts. The win would merely cement Mousasi as one of the better strikers the middleweight division had to offer.
Set to rematch almost six years later, the two middleweights look to capture another victory before making a case to challenge for the middleweight crown.
The first bout was fairly one-sided, but the sequel might not be.
