PHOENIX – Rafael dos Anjos wanted to make a statement and prove he is the rightful No. 1 contender in the UFC’s lightweight division. A one-sided destruction of Nate Diaz sure helped his cause.
Dos Anjos was aggressive, intense and masterful in using brutal leg kicks to chop down his opponent while pummeling him both on the feet and on the canvas en route to a clearcut decision win.
Check out the video highlights above from the fight at Phoenix’s U.S. Airways Center. The main card aired on FOX after prelims on FOX Sports 1 and UFC Fight Pass.
