Former UFC heavyweight champion Junior dos Santos has been confirmed as a participant on the upcoming edition of Danca dos Famosos—the Brazilian equivalent of Dancing with the Stars.
Per Guilherme Cruz of MMA Fighting, Globo announced on Sunday the 35-year-old would be taking part in their Domingao do Faustao show, which begins on August 25.
The decision from Dos Santos to feature means he will follow in the footsteps of a number of fighters who have traded the Octagon for the dance floor.
Former UFC light heavyweight champion Chuck Liddell and flyweight star Paige VanZant delved into the dancing world on the United States' version of the show.
