He is an attacker, he is a banger like me and he likes to fight, “Dos Santos told MMA Junkie and other journalists through an interpreter during the UFC Fight Night 254 Media Day on Wednesday. “But I see a lot of good opportunities. It is also a black belt, so if it goes like that, we are good too.
