Santiago Ponzinibbio: ‘Scared’ Rafael dos Anjos ‘is running from the fight’

Some key match-ups have been made in the upper echelon of the UFC welterweight division over the last few days, from Woodley-Usman to Till-Masvidal to Edwards-Nelson to Thompson-Pettis, and another booking appears to be imminent.

Coming off a big knockout win over Neil Magny in his home country in November, Argentina’s Santiago Ponzinibbio has engaged in a social media war with former lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos recently. Among other unpleasant words, Ponzinibbio called dos Anjos a “diva” and dos Anjos called him “drunk”.
