Rafael dos Anjos undergoes plastic surgery after ear nearly fell off at UFC 225

Rafael dos Anjos lost the opportunity to become the interim UFC welterweight champion at UFC 225, losing to Colby Covington via unanimous decision in Chicago earlier this month, and had to go under the knife to fix an old issue.

dos Anjos posted a photo on his Instagram stories earlier this week announcing that he had done an ear procedure. In fact, it was not the first time he had to have ear “fixed.”

The former UFC lightweight champion suffered a big cut behind his ear against Covington, and it was stitched right after the contest.
