UFC 131 will take place on Saturday, June 11 from Rogers Arena in Vancouver, BC. The main event on the card will be a heavyweight battle between two highly ranked strikers, Junior dos Santos and Shane Carwin.
As the intro to the video says, “The countdown to UFC 131 starts now.”
The video starts out with a pretty astounding fact, Dos Santos and Carwin have a combined 26 MMA fights, with only three of them going past the first round. In other words, don’t expect these fighters to resort to the dreaded “lay and pray” technique.
Both fighters are confident going into the fight with Dos Santos saying, “If the fight’s done in the first round, it will be my victory.”
Carwin, of course, sees things differently, “I like Junior dos Santos, I respect Junior dos Santos, but I’m going to knock him out.”
The countdown video also takes a look at the fight between Kenny Florian and Diego Nunes as well as the bout between Demian Maia and Mark Munoz.
