The UFC’s #12 lightweight, Beneil Dariush, is stepping back into the Octagon after sustaining a devastating knockout loss to Edson Barboza at UFC Fight Night: Belfort vs. Gastelum, back in March of this year. This Saturday night, Dariush will be returning to action, on the UFC 216 main card, against longtime UFC veteran Evan Dunham, who is currently ranked #14 in the world. En route to Las Vegas, Nevada with training partners Giga Chikadze and Arthur Estrazulas, Dariush took a moment to talk with Bloody Elbow about bouncing back from such a serious KO, his plans to finish Evan Dunham, and predicts a future title shot for former teammate Rafael dos Anjos at 170.
