UFC 111 takes place March 27 at the Prudential Center with two two pay-per-view title fights: UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre vs. top contender Dan Hardy and [...] Some fans thought it was matter of when, not if Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovic would grab the UFC heavyweight title. A huge star with PRIDE in Japan from 2000-2006, Cro Cop has gone just 2-3 in the UFC and now because of his surly attitude he may be headed for the unemployment line.

That’s all it’s taken for Brazil’s Junior Dos Santos to soar into the UFC heavyweight title picture.
