Rothwell is coming off a glorious Gogotine of Josh Barnett, the first time the Catch master had ever tapped in MMA. But there is not a lot of time for Rothwell to revel in the glory.
Rothwell has now won four straight in the UFC’s notoriously streak weak heavyweight division. Dos Santos is coming off a loss to Alistair Overeem in December; he has not seen a back to back wins in four years.
Given how Rothwell ended the last fight, the odds of him winning by flying Omoplata around probably going to be about even.
The event will also feature two more heavyweight fights, among others:
Gabriel Gonzaga against RuslanMagomedov
?Francis Ngannou vs. BojanMihajlovic
Jan Blachowicz vs. Igor Pokrajac
Nicolas Dalby vs. BartoszFabinski
Bojan Velickovic vs. Alessio Di Chirico ?
