NESN MMA Podcast: Junior Dos Santos Returns Against Heavyweight Prospect
Junior dos Santos returns to the octagon for the first time in more than one year as he takes on up-and-coming heavyweight Blagoy Ivanov at UFC Fight Night Boise.

He goes up against the Bulgarian Ivanov, who is the former WSOF heavyweight champion and will be making his UFC debut.
Fan favorite Sage Northcutt also takes on Zak Ottow in the co-main event.
