Ever since Rafael dos Anjos took a split decision win over Paul Felder in November 2020 and sent Felder into retirement, RDA has had a hard time making it to fight night. Two bouts with Islam Makhachev did not come to fruition and despite lots of talk between himself a few different lightweights, nothing was imminent.
Until now.
According to MMA Fighting, agreements are in place for Dos Anjos for face off with another Rafael - Rafael Fiziev to be precise - in the main event of a February 19th UFC event. They have not officially put pen to paper as of yet.
