The main event of UFC 131 is heating up, as Junior Dos Santos has now taken a verbal swing at former heavyweight champ Brock Lesnar.
Dos Santos' latest comments with The MMA Hour showed how confident he is for the June 11 showdown between the two heavyweight contenders.
“He's a wrestler, so he feels uncomfortable when people throw punches on him. I think his fight against Cain Velasquez shows good things for me, because I think he's got a weak chin.”
The Brazilian power puncher also had his comments fueled by what Lesnar said in an interview with The Aftermath.
After acknowledging that his boxing needs improvement, the former “Next Big Thing” went on to say: "As far as learning…I don't know if you ever get used to taking punches, but that's not the problem.”
Lesnar explained his comments by continuing with "The problem is all my other assets have been farther ahead of the game and this is one we're going to have to keep lagging along and not get frustrated and understand I got to get better."
Dos Santos took the former comment to mean that Lesnar cannot take a punch.
Perhaps even more surprisingly, Dos Santos went on to say that he does not think Brock is capable of overwhelming him with his wrestling in this fight.
We will see if Dos Santos can back up his words if you want to read the rest of this artical you can go to there website by clicking the title above...
