Former UFC lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos brought himself back in the win column on Saturday with a fourth-round submission victory over Kevin Lee. Yet, despite a strong finish, his performance came with criticisms.
A former would-be opponent in Conor McGregor took time to criticize his win in a post-fight Twitter jab, bringing up dos Anjos’ pull-out from their scheduled 155-pound title fight at UFC 196 in 2016. Dos Anjos is not really the type to throw shade at other fighters, but he did respond to “The Notorious” via Twitter, hitting at the latter’s whisky endeavor.
