Video: Does Caio Borralho have championship potential after winning the main event of UFC on ESPN 62?

[autotag]Caio Borralho[/autotag] achieved a breakthrough in his career on Saturday when he put in a brilliant performance against Jared Cannonier in the main event of UFC on ESPN 62.

Borralho (17-1 MMA, -0 UFC) has now begun his tenure in the Octagon with seven consecutive wins, but none was bigger than his unanimous decision victory over Cannonier (17-8 MMA, 10-8 UFC) at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, which was considered Fight of the Night.

Following the win, Borralho rightly described himself as an up-and-coming contender and believes he could be fighting for the belt shortly, if not next against the winner of the anticipated 185-pound title fight between Dricus Du Plessis and Sean Strickland.
