The bout won't happen for another five months at UFC 138 but that hasn't stopped number one contender to the heavyweight title Junior Dos Santos from coming up with an early game plan for when he attempts to take the strap away from Cain Velasquez:
"Much aggressive, much aggressive. Velasquez is a guy who has great conditioning, so he?s a guy I want to go for the knockout or the submission. I can?t give him time or space to work on what he likes, the takedowns and doing the ground and pound game. I train Wrestling a lot, I like training takedown defenses, and I consider myself good while defending takedown attempts. So, that?s why I feel pretty much comfortable when the guys try to take me down, I feel comfortable, cool with it. Velasquez is much faster and effective on his game, more technical (Comparing to Carwin). Velasquez is the number one on the heavyweight division, and it?ll be my greatest challenge ever."
