TWEET: John Kavanagh all but confirms the news UFC fans don’t want to believe

F*ck it anyway

Say it ain’t so, coach.

Without any official word confirming the worst – that Rafael Dos Anjos has in fact broken his foot – we will have to go with the next best-placed source.

Conor McGregor’s coach John Kavanagh has pretty put a nail in the UFC 196 main event’s coffin without typing a single word.

The saddest of all sad emoticons.

Of course Kavanagh and McGregor have experience of losing a high-profile Brazilian opponent weeks out from a title fight following Jose Aldo’s late withdrawal from UFC 189.

To lose one title fight opponent is unlucky, to lose two really is 🙁
