This Saturday night in Mexico City, former Ultimate Fighting Championship lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos looks to get back in the lightweight running against Tony Ferguson, who with a victory would become the first 155-pounder in UFC history to win nine consecutive fights. These are two of the best men in mixed martial arts' best division and so I am, predictably, mighty excited.
