Two days out from a bareknuckle battle between former UFC heavyweight champions Junior Dos Santos and Fabricio Werdum, Gamebred Boxing promoter Jorge Masvidal has announced elevated stakes.
Dos Santos and Werdum will meet in a gloveless MMA fight Friday at VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville, Fla. The winner, Masvidal revealed at a news conference Wednesday, will face the winner of another heavyweight bareknuckle MMA fight, Alan Belcher vs. Roy Nelson, freshly minted for an Oct. 28 show at Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi, Miss.
