UFC 135's Junior Assuncao celebrates UFC return, hopes to bring brother Freddy along

If Junior Assuncao looks familiar, there's a reason for that.

While some casual observers may assume the 30-year-old Assuncao is making his UFC debut at Saturday's UFC 135 event, the Brazilian is actually returning to the octagon after a four-year absence.

During that time, Assuncao racked up a six-fight win streak and reinvented himself as a fighter. Now the capoeira and jiu-jitsu stylist has a new goal in mind - to firmly establish himself in the UFC and then have brother Freddy join him and Raphael in the octagon.
