Junior Dos Santos’ debut on ‘Dancing With The Stars’ was perfect in every way

Junior Dos Santos remains the most lovable former “Baddest Man on the Planet” in the history of “Baddest Men on the Planet,” and his debut on Brazil’s “Dancing With The Stars” is just the latest reason why.

Dos Santos, the former UFC heavyweight champion, had his first performance over the weekend, dancing alongside professional dancer Ana Paula Guedes to the tune of “What Is Love” by Haddaway. You might know it better as that song from “A Night at the Roxbury.”

We think Dos Santos absolutely nailed it, and so did the judges, who awarded “Cigano” with 58.4 points out of 60, including four perfect 10s.

Between this and singing “Purple Rain” and all the other wonderful moments he’s given us through the years, how can anyone not love this guy?
