Filed under: Featured Videos , News , UFC , Videos After a 13-month stint as UFC heavyweight champion, Junior dos Santos is again pushing to win back the belt. Twice denied by now-former champ Cain Velasquez, who in June lost his title to Fabricio Werdum, Dos Santos (17-3 MMA, 11-3 UFC) meets Alistair Overeem (39-14 MMA, 4-3 UFC) on Saturday at UFC on FOX 17. The bout serves as the event’s co-headliner on the FOX-televised main card at Amway Center in Orlando, Fla. It’s Dos Santos’ first appearance since a damaging win over Stipe Miocic one year ago at UFC on FOX 13. “He’s a good heavyweight fighter with dangerous striking,” Dos Santos said of Overeem to MMAjunkie
