\nSantos<\/a> will face a tall task \u2014 literally \u2014 when he meets the
\n6-foot-7 Robelis
\nDespaigne<\/a> on the
\nMost Valuable Promotions \u201cRousey vs. Carano\u201d<\/a> card on May
\n16.<\/p>\n
\npresented by the Olympic taekwondo bronze medalist and current
\nKarate Combat heavyweight champion.<\/p>\n
\ntaekwondo, he\u2019s very fast, has dangerous kicks, straight punches
\nand I have my background in boxing, so it\u00b4s going to be an
\ninteresting clash of styles,\u201d dos Santos said.<\/p>\n
\nProfessional Fighters League<\/a> champion Renan
\nFerreira<\/a> has been a primary training partner in preparation for
\nDespaigne.<\/p>\n
\nis even taller than Despaigne. He should also be fighting soon, so
\nhe\u2019s helping me a lot in this camp,\u201d dos Santos said.<\/p>\nBoxing in the Future?<\/h2>\n
\nMMA career. With Netflix promoting events in both disciplines, the
\nBrazilian is eager to try his hand at boxing at the next Netflix
\nevent.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cCombat sports needed a movement like this. This is where I wanted
\nto be, and I\u2019m sure the event will be a huge success not only
\nbecause of the great fights but also because of the impressive
\naudience they already had in boxing will be certainly repeated now
\nin MMA. And I\u2019m available to fight in both formats.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
