UFC 108: Junior dos Santos vs Gabriel Gonzaga possible for Jan. 2

By: MMAmania

The traditional “year-end” show for the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) keeps getting bigger.
Literally.
Hard-hitting heavyweights Junior dos Santos and Gabriel Gonzaga are expected to tangle at UFC 108, which is scheduled to take place from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Jan. 2, 2010, according to Fighters.com.
“Cigano” recently cemented his place among the heavyweight big guns when he had former Pride FC star Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovic pleading for “No Mas!” after a three-round drubbing at UFC 103 just last month. The Brazilian slugger is now undefeated (3-0) inside the Octagon with three straight technical knockout finishes.
Gonzaga, on the other hand, warmly welcomed Chris Tuchscherer to the promotion with a devastating first round ball bash at UFC 102 back in August. The Minnesota Martial Arts Academy-trained fighter was given time to recover; however, he returned to get utterly smashed shortly thereafter by a relentless “Napao.”
It marked the third win in four attempts for Gonzaga. But the former number one contender has struggled against top competition. He’ll try to shuck that label once again when he squares off against his fellow countryman on fight night.
UFC 108 is expected to feature a main event between 185-pound division deity Anderson “The Spider” Silva defending his division title against former light heavyweight champion Vitor “The Phenom” Belfort. Another former 205-pound champion, Rashad Evans, will also likely return to action against another Brazilian, Thiago Silva, in the co-featured fight of the night.
