UFC lightweight king Rafael dos Anjos has done his best to make his Intagram followers vomit with terror with a recent post.
The Brazilian was given that coveted golden strap after comprehensively beating Anthony Pettis in the headline act at UFC 185. The win marked RDA’s fourth consecutive victory inside the Octagon, with his last loss coming at the hands of Khabib Nurmagomedov in April 2014.
Khabib faces fan favourite Donald Cerrone on the stacked UFC 187 card, with the winner all but guaranteed a shot at dos Anjos’ title. After already beating him once, Khabib might be considered the favourite to usurp Rafael dos Anjos’ throne.
However, dos Anjos shared a photo of a horrific ear injury he was nursing prior to the Khabib loss, which, given the timing might be construed as a bit of an excuse.
How does having a messed up ear hinders your ability to stuff takedowns, you ask? I guess we’ll never know.
