The UFC is set to have a show at the United Kingdom on April 20 as read on MMA Weekly. Among the matches for UFC 70 is Mirko Cro Cop vs. Gabriel Gonzaga. This won't exactly be easy as Gonzaga has a 7-1 record and is undefeated in the UFC. His only MMA loss is to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) champion, Fabricio Werdum. Although Cro Cop is already a heavy favorite to win the heavyweight bout in Manchester, England he appears to have another advantage. The BJJ blackbelt on Cro Cop Squad, who coaches his team on grappling is Werdum himself. Expect another KO or TKO win for Mirko after stuffing takedown attempts from Gonzaga.
