When the UFC puts together Brazilian vs. Brazilian matchups, and has the two fight in their home country, it’s sometimes a crapshoot to see which fighter will get the most fan support. For Thiago Santos (8-1 MMA, 0-0 UFC), he’s hoping he’ll have the edge there against Cezar Ferreira (5-2 MMA, 1-0 UFC) at Saturday’s UFC 163 pay-per-view. UFC 163 takes place at HSBC Arena in Rio de Janeiro with a main card, including Santos vs. Ferreira, on pay-per-view following FX and Facebook prelims. For Santos, it’s a fight just about in his backyard
