Heavyweights Junior dos Santos and Gabriel Gonzaga may fight at UFC 107 on December 12 in Memphis, Tennessee, according to rumors which surfaced over the weekend.
Dos Santos (9-1) opened his UFC career with back-to-back first-round knockouts of Fabricio Werdum and Stefan Struve, before forcing Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic to submit to punches in the third-round of their September bout.
Gonzaga (11-4), previously rumored to be fighting Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira at UFC 107, bounced back from a March loss to Shane Carwin with a first-round knockout of newcomer Chris Tuchscherer in August to improve to 3-1 in his last four fights.
UFC 107 is headlined by a lightweight championship matchup between title-holder BJ Penn and challenger Diego Sanchez, and is also expected to feature Kenny Florian vs. Clay Guida, Cheick Kongo vs. Frank Mir, Paul Buentello vs. Todd Duffee.
