By Amy Kaplan
A rematch more than 15 years in the making takes place in the main event of the Gamebred MMA 5 bare-knuckle event on Friday, Sept. 8. Former UFC heavyweight champion Junior dos Santos looks to prove he's still got it when he steps in to face former foe and another former UFC champion Fabricio Werdum. In their first clash, dos Santos secured the win with a TKO but it's been many years since they've squared off and anything could happen this time around.
Elsewhere on the card, are several former UFC fighters or MMA prospects hoping to catch the eye of someone important and working their way into the spotlight.
