Freshly crowned lightweight champ Rafael dos Anjos is rooting for Khabib Nurmagomedov to beat Donald Cerrone at UFC 187.
Rafael dos Anjos has unfinished business with Khabib Nurmagomedov. The two surging lightweights fought last year at UFC on FOX 11, which saw Russia's rising star claim another dominant unanimous decision win. 'The Eagle' overwhelmed dos Anjos with his commanding grappling, using his refined Sambo skills to smother the Brazilian from the opening bell.
Since his 2014 defeat to Nurmagomedov, dos Anjos returned to the Octagon more ferocious than ever and continued to climb the 155 lb.
